Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, DTX2 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated DTX2 data layer compared with 28 for mass-spec protein and 2 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), where higher DTX2 mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated DTX2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD and HNSC show a favorable association.
LUAD, HNSC, and CCRCC are the cancer types where DTX2 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
