Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, IPO4 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated IPO4 data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein and 4 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), where higher IPO4 mass-spec protein is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated IPO4 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD and LSCC show a favorable association.
LUAD, COAD, and LSCC are the cancer types where IPO4 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
