Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, IRF1 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated IRF1 data layer compared with 22 for mass-spec protein and 7 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC), where higher IRF1 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated IRF1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LSCC show a favorable association.
UCEC, LSCC, and HNSC are the cancer types where IRF1 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
