Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, PHLDB2 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated PHLDB2 data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM), where higher PHLDB2 Mutation is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated PHLDB2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as SKCM and UCEC show a favorable association.
SKCM, UCEC, and THCA are the cancer types where PHLDB2 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
