Performance achieved by 15 different classifiers for predicting overall survival in HNSCC patients from TP53 mutation. Classifiers include: the rules devised by Poeta et al. with or without splice-site considerations (Poeta rules + Splice and Poeta rules, respectively); site-specific clustering density ≥0.05 (Density ≥0.5); WAF1 transactivation as a percent of wild type (WAF1 ≤20 % and WAF1 ≤10 %); site of mutation—DNA distance at two discrete cutoffs (Distance ≤20 Å and Distance ≤10 Å); PolyPhen-2, with two different dichotomizations of the tripartite output (PPH-2 Possibly and PPH-2 Probably); the VEST algorithm with two different thresholds (VEST ≥0.8 and VEST ≥0.4); Align-GVGD, with two different dichotomizations of the septpartite output (AGVGD C45 and AGVGD C35); and the SIFT and POSE algorithms each with a single implementation

C is the concordance statistic, CI is the confidence interval, HR is the hazard ratio calculated for disruptive (D) vs. non-disruptive (ND) classifications, and Predictions shows the relative classification (D vs. ND) for the 230 TP53 variants, for each classifier
