Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, VILL Mutation is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated VILL data layer compared with 26 for mass-spec protein and 6 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC), where higher VILL Mutation is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated VILL expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC and SKCM show a favorable association.
UCEC, ACC, and HNSC are the cancer types where VILL Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
