Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, NFIC Mutation is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated NFIC data layer compared with 26 for mass-spec protein and 6 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PCPG), where higher NFIC Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated NFIC expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC and SKCM show a favorable association.
PCPG, UCEC, and SKCM are the cancer types where NFIC Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
