Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, EZR mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated EZR data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein and 7 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), where higher EZR mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated EZR expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as CCRCC and HNSC show a favorable association.
PDAC, CCRCC, and GBM are the cancer types where EZR mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
