Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, OTOS Mutation is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated OTOS data layer compared with 20 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in cervical squamous cell carcinoma and endocervical adenocarcinoma (CESC), where higher OTOS Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated OTOS expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as SKCM show a favorable association.
CESC, COAD, and SKCM are the cancer types where OTOS Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
