Association of CSC gene expression signature with radiotherapy in the two independent HNSCC cohorts (TCGA and MDACC). a-b The 5-year OS rates for the CSC-HR and CSC-LR subgroups in patients with HNSCC who did and did not receive radiotherapy (n = 348 and 196, respectively) and (c, d) those for patients with HNSCC who did and did not receive radiotherapy in the CSC-HR (n = 293) and CSC-LR (n = 251) subgroups were depicted using Kaplan–Meier plots. Patients in the CSC-LR subgroup benefited significantly from radiotherapy (p < 0.0001 and < 0.0001, respectively). *p < 0.05
