Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CCDC71 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated CCDC71 data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein and 3 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), where higher CCDC71 mass-spec protein is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated CCDC71 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD and HNSC show a favorable association.
PDAC, LUAD, and HNSC are the cancer types where CCDC71 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
