RPSA

RNA & survival
SurvivalRNAKaplan–Meier · TCGA cohorts

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RPSA RNA is linked to patient survival in 21 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated RPSA data layer compared with 2 for mutation status and 5 for mass-spec protein.

The strongest signal is observed in uveal melanoma (UVM), where higher RPSA RNA is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated RPSA expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UVM and BRCA show a favorable association.

UVM, LIHC, and ACC are the cancer types where RPSA 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.
