Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, SPRR2F RNA is linked to patient survival in 23 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated SPRR2F data layer compared with 2 for mutation status and 4 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP), where higher SPRR2F RNA is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated SPRR2F expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LGG and HNSC show a favorable association.
KIRP, KIRC, and SKCM are the cancer types where SPRR2F 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.
