We evaluated survival in lung cancer patients with thrombophilia mutations.Materials and methods\n\nWe queried TCGA-LUAD and TCGA-LUSC for primary lung cancers with F2, F5, PROS1, or SERPINC1 mutations. STAR RNA-seq expression was included in univariate and multivariate Cox models comparing patients with versus without thrombophilia mutations, adjusting for age, race, AJCC stage, primary site, treatment type, laterality, and treatment modalities. Hazard ratios with 95% confidence intervals were calculated.Results\n\nWe identified 569 patients with thrombophilia mutations and 850 without. Across all mutations, higher pathologic stage and right-sided tumors were associated with worse survival. F5 mutations were significantly associated with survival in middle-lobe (HR 1.49, p = 0.028), pleural (HR 1.33, p = 0.006), and upper-lobe (HR 1.20, p = 0.025) cancers. SERPINC1 and PROS1 mutations were associated with improved survival in upper-lobe cancers. Among upper-lobe cancers, African American patients with F5 mutations had worse survival by age at diagnosis (HR 1.01, p = 0.015) and race (HR 1.33, p = 0.024).Conclusions\n\nThrombophilia mutations influence lung cancer survival and may help refine gene-targeted therapies.",
