Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, ECEL1 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated ECEL1 data layer compared with 22 for mass-spec protein and 1 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where higher ECEL1 Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated ECEL1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as STAD show a favorable association.
KIRC, LIHC, and THCA are the cancer types where ECEL1 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
