Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CD209 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated CD209 data layer compared with 17 for mass-spec protein and 9 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), where higher CD209 mass-spec protein is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated CD209 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as PDAC and LUAD show a favorable association.
PDAC, LUAD, and LSCC are the cancer types where CD209 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
