Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, SNORD115-24 RNA is linked to patient survival in 2 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated SNORD115-24 data layer compared with 2 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD), where higher SNORD115-24 RNA is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated SNORD115-24 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker.
STAD and KIRC are the cancer types where SNORD115-24 RNA most reproducibly stratifies survival.
