Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, DDX59 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated DDX59 data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein and 4 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where higher DDX59 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated DDX59 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as CCRCC and LUAD show a favorable association.
HNSC, CCRCC, and PDAC are the cancer types where DDX59 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
