Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000806575 SCV000946579 uncertain significance Neuroblastoma, susceptibility to, 3 2022-07-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ALK-related conditions. This variant results in a copy number gain of the genomic region encompassing exon(s) 5-8 of the ALK gene. While the exact position of this variant cannot be determined from the data, sub-genic copy number gains are generally in tandem (PMID: 25640679). This variant is predicted to be out-of-frame, and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. However, the current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in ALK cause disease. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
