Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, FAM114A2 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated FAM114A2 data layer compared with 21 for mass-spec protein and 3 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), where higher FAM114A2 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated FAM114A2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as PDAC and HNSC show a favorable association.
GBM, PDAC, and HNSC are the cancer types where FAM114A2 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
