Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, KANK2 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 6 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated KANK2 data layer compared with 27 for mass-spec protein and 6 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in lymphoid neoplasm diffuse large b-cell lymphoma (DLBC), where higher KANK2 Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated KANK2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC and SKCM show a favorable association.
DLBC, SCLC, and CESC are the cancer types where KANK2 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
