Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CD3E Mutation is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated CD3E data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where higher CD3E Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated CD3E expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as SKCM show a favorable association.
HNSC, UCEC, and SKCM are the cancer types where CD3E Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
