Dear CbioPortal group,

Thank you for your webpage it is very useful.

Can you help me out with this : 

TCGA-PL-A8LV

 

This Breast cancer (BRCA-TCGA) patient has a overall survival in months that is -0.23, I can not understand what a negatif month means, can you help me out ?

Thank you, best wishes,

Rachel Marcone

Hi Rachel,

Usually this means that the patient never followed up after the initial sample acquisition.
