Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CXorf38 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated CXorf38 data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein and 4 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC), where higher CXorf38 mass-spec protein is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated CXorf38 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker.
CCRCC, LSCC, and COAD are the cancer types where CXorf38 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
