Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, L2HGDH Mutation is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated L2HGDH data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein and 6 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD), where higher L2HGDH Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated L2HGDH expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC show a favorable association.
STAD, LUSC, and PRAD are the cancer types where L2HGDH Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
