Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, DCP1B mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated DCP1B data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), where higher DCP1B mass-spec protein is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated DCP1B expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as GBM and LUAD show a favorable association.
LSCC, HNSC, and GBM are the cancer types where DCP1B mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
