Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, GPANK1 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated GPANK1 data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein and 3 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), where higher GPANK1 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated GPANK1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD show a favorable association.
PDAC, LSCC, and LUAD are the cancer types where GPANK1 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
