Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RPRM RNA is linked to patient survival in 26 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated RPRM data layer compared with 2 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in mesothelioma (MESO), where higher RPRM RNA is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated RPRM expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as MESO and CHOL show a favorable association.
MESO, CHOL, and LGG are the cancer types where RPRM 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.
