Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CTDSPL2 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated CTDSPL2 data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein and 6 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), where higher CTDSPL2 mass-spec protein is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated CTDSPL2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LSCC and CCRCC show a favorable association.
LSCC, HNSC, and UCEC are the cancer types where CTDSPL2 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
