Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, LINC02421 RNA is linked to patient survival in 25 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated LINC02421 data layer.
The strongest signal is observed in uveal melanoma (UVM), where higher LINC02421 RNA is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated LINC02421 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as PAAD and MESO show a favorable association.
UVM, KIRC, and UCEC are the cancer types where LINC02421 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.
