Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, IKBKB Mutation is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated IKBKB data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein and 7 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in small cell lung cancer (SCLC), where higher IKBKB Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated IKBKB expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as BLCA and STAD show a favorable association.
SCLC, LUSC, and LUAD are the cancer types where IKBKB Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
