    Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a prevalent malignancy with rising incidence and a current 5-year survival rate of approximately 60%.

  • 2

    C4orf19 is downregulated in HNSCC and its high expression correlates with favorable prognosis and enhanced sensitivity to chemotherapy.

  • 3

    Integrative analyses indicate that C4orf19 expression is associated with immune checkpoint molecules and tumor microenvironment composition.

  • 4

    C4orf19 has potential as a predictive biomarker for immunotherapy response, addressing the need for specific treatment selection in HNSCC.

  • 5

    The study utilized bioinformatics and clinical data to develop prognostic models integrating C4orf19 for predicting treatment outcomes in HNSCC patients.
