Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, HPS5 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated HPS5 data layer compared with 21 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC), where higher HPS5 Mutation is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated HPS5 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC and LUAD show a favorable association.
UCEC, BRCA, and LUSC are the cancer types where HPS5 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
