Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, KCTD3 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated KCTD3 data layer compared with 21 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), where higher KCTD3 Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated KCTD3 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC and SCLC show a favorable association.
LUAD, UCEC, and SCLC are the cancer types where KCTD3 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
