Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, WNT8B Mutation is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated WNT8B data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein and 1 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where higher WNT8B Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated WNT8B expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as SKCM show a favorable association.
HNSC, STAD, and SKCM are the cancer types where WNT8B Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
