Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, IGLV4-3 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated IGLV4-3 data layer compared with 17 for mass-spec protein and 3 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), where higher IGLV4-3 mass-spec protein is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated IGLV4-3 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as CCRCC show a favorable association.
LUAD, PDAC, and CCRCC are the cancer types where IGLV4-3 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
