Analysis of publicly available gene expression datasets reveal improved outcome with high CTSS expression in HER2+ and TNBC patients. Kaplan-Meier curves stratifying (a) HER2+ and (b) TNBC patients based on high or low CTSS expression and evaluating (i) overall survival (OS) and (ii) relapse free survival (RFS). Log-Rank p-value and hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence intervals indicated. N=number of patients.
