Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, IFNL3 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 2 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated IFNL3 data layer compared with 20 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where higher IFNL3 Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated IFNL3 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker.
KIRC and COAD are the cancer types where IFNL3 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
