Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, TERB1 RNA is linked to patient survival in 21 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated TERB1 data layer compared with 2 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lymphoid neoplasm diffuse large b-cell lymphoma (DLBC), where higher TERB1 RNA is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated TERB1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as PAAD and BRCA show a favorable association.
DLBC, UVM, and KIRP are the cancer types where TERB1 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.
