BAALC-AS1

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, BAALC-AS1 RNA is linked to patient survival in 19 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated BAALC-AS1 data layer.

The strongest signal is observed in bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA), where higher BAALC-AS1 RNA is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated BAALC-AS1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as KIRC and UVM show a favorable association.

BLCA, KIRC, and UVM are the cancer types where BAALC-AS1 RNA most reproducibly stratifies survival.

RNA survival associations by lineage

Ranked by sampling consensus. AUC1 and AUC2 indicate survival in the high- and low-expression groups, respectively; the lower AUC marks the poorer-surviving group. p-values are from the log-rank test.
