Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CCDC173 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 2 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated CCDC173 data layer compared with 22 for mass-spec protein and 4 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), where higher CCDC173 mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated CCDC173 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LSCC show a favorable association.
LSCC and LUAD are the cancer types where CCDC173 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
