LINC00968

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, LINC00968 RNA is linked to patient survival in 21 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated LINC00968 data layer.

The strongest signal is observed in uveal melanoma (UVM), where higher LINC00968 RNA is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated LINC00968 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as SKCM and LUAD show a favorable association.

UVM, MESO, and SKCM are the cancer types where LINC00968 RNA most reproducibly stratifies survival.

RNA survival associations by lineage

Ranked by sampling consensus. AUC1 and AUC2 indicate survival in the high- and low-expression groups, respectively; the lower AUC marks the poorer-surviving group. p-values are from the log-rank test.
