Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, TTN Mutation is linked to patient survival in 20 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated TTN data layer compared with 21 for mass-spec protein and 3 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in thyroid carcinoma (THCA), where higher TTN Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated TTN expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUSC and KIRC show a favorable association.
THCA, LUSC, and KIRC are the cancer types where TTN Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
Mutation 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.
