BAALC-AS2

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, BAALC-AS2 RNA is linked to patient survival in 20 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated BAALC-AS2 data layer.

The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP), where higher BAALC-AS2 RNA is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated BAALC-AS2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as KIRP and PAAD show a favorable association.

KIRP, PAAD, and UCS are the cancer types where BAALC-AS2 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.
