Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, KLK13 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated KLK13 data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein and 2 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA), where higher KLK13 Mutation is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated KLK13 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as BLCA show a favorable association.
BLCA, KIRC, and SARC are the cancer types where KLK13 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
