Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, PDCD6 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated PDCD6 data layer compared with 26 for mass-spec protein and 3 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC), where higher PDCD6 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated PDCD6 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as GBM show a favorable association.
CCRCC, UCEC, and PDAC are the cancer types where PDCD6 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
