Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, IFI27L2 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated IFI27L2 data layer compared with 21 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where higher IFI27L2 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated IFI27L2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LSCC and PDAC show a favorable association.
HNSC, LUAD, and LSCC are the cancer types where IFI27L2 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
