Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, TM6SF2 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated TM6SF2 data layer compared with 28 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD), where higher TM6SF2 Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated TM6SF2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC show a favorable association.
STAD, LUAD, and OV are the cancer types where TM6SF2 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
