Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, FAM8A1 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 2 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated FAM8A1 data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC), where higher FAM8A1 Mutation is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated FAM8A1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC show a favorable association.
UCEC and LUAD are the cancer types where FAM8A1 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
