Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CDH15 RNA is linked to patient survival in 24 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated CDH15 data layer compared with 4 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where higher CDH15 RNA is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated CDH15 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD and LGG show a favorable association.
KIRC, ACC, and LUAD are the cancer types where CDH15 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.
