Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, SHB Mutation is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated SHB data layer compared with 21 for mass-spec protein and 4 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA), where higher SHB Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated SHB expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC show a favorable association.
BLCA, STAD, and COAD are the cancer types where SHB Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
