Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, SPG11 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated SPG11 data layer compared with 26 for mass-spec protein and 6 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), where higher SPG11 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated SPG11 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as HNSC show a favorable association.
PDAC, HNSC, and GBM are the cancer types where SPG11 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
