GeneDx RCV000034388 SCV000148996 risk factor not provided 2015-05-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is denoted APC c.3920T>A at the DNA level and p.Ile1307Lys (I1307K) at the protein level, replacing an Isoleucine with a Lysine. APC Ile1307Lys is a common variant, observed at an allele frequency of 3.7% (371/10,138) in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry in large population cohorts (Lek 2016) and in up to 11% of individuals in Ashkenazi Jewish cohorts in the literature (Liang 2013, Boursi 2013). A meta-analysis of epidemiologic studies of APC polymorphisms suggests that individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry who carry this variant have a 2-fold increased risk of colorectal cancer (Liang 2013). However, studies of this variant in other populations did not report an increased risk of colorectal cancer (Liang 2013); therefore, the clinical significance in individuals without Jewish ancestry is not clear at this time. In sum, we consider APC Ile1307Lys to be a risk allele. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network has management guidelines for individuals carrying the APC Ile1307Lys risk allele (NCCN).
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000020088 SCV000153895 association Familial adenomatous polyposis 1 2024-01-31 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1307 of the APC protein (p.Ile1307Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs1801155, gnomAD 4%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This variant is found in ~10% of Ashkenazi Jewish individuals and ~3% of Sephardic Jewish individuals (PMID: 23896379). Other studies have reported a 6-7% frequency in Ashkenazi individuals (PMID: 9288102). This variant is found in ~28% of Ashkenazi Jewish individuals with familial colorectal cancer (PMID: 9288102). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 822). In a large meta-analysis involving ~10,000 cases and controls (PMID: 23576677), Ashkenazi Jewish individuals who carried the I1307K change had a significantly increased risk of colorectal cancer (OR=2.17, 95% CI=1.65-2.86). By contrast, the I1307K change did not appear to confer any additional risk of colorectal cancer in non-Ashkenazi Jewish individuals (OR=1.36, 95% CI=0.59-3.13). This DNA substitution converts an AAATAAAA sequence element into an extended tract of eight adenosine nucleotides (A8). The A8 mononucleotide tract created by this change has been shown to confer an increased propensity for somatic truncating mutations on this allele (PMID: 9751605). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt APC protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. In summary, this is a frequently observed variant that is associated with a 2-fold increased risk of colorectal cancer in the Ashkenazi Jewish population. An increased risk of colorectal cancer in individuals who are not of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry has not been established.
Ambry Genetics RCV000115087 SCV000183892 established risk allele Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2024-01-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.I1307K alteration (also known as c.3920T>A) is located in coding exon 15 of the APC gene. This alteration is present in 6-10% of the Ashkenazi Jewish population and has been reported at even higher frequencies in Ashkenazi Jewish colorectal cancer (CRC) cohorts (Boursi B et al. Eur. J. Cancer. 2013 Nov;49:3680-5; Gryfe R et al. Am J. Hum. Genet. 1999 Feb;64:378-84; Syngal S et al. JAMA. 2000 Aug;284:857-60; Stern HS et al. Gasteroenterol. 2001 Feb;120:392-400). The magnitude of CRC risk associated with p.I1307K has been debated in the literature; however, a meta-analysis of data from numerous independent studies found that p.I1307K confers an increased lifetime risk for CRC in the Ashkenazi Jewish population (OR=2.17, 95% CI=1.64-2.86; Liang J et al. Am. J. Epidemiol. 2013 Jun;177:1169-79). Associations between p.I1307K and risk of CRC and other malignancies is not well defined risk in non-Ashkenazi Jewish populations (Liang J et al. Am. J. Epidemiol. 2013 Jun;177:1169-79; Leshno A et al. Int. J. Cancer. 2016 Mar;138:1361-7; Abdel-Malak C et al. Fam. Cancer. 2016 Jan;15:49-56). This alteration is considered a risk allele for colorectal cancer and is not known to be associated with polyposis. Although controversial, increased colonoscopic surveillance is an option for carriers of this mutation (Rennert G et al. Dis. Colon Rectum. 2005 Dec;48:2317-21). Clinical correlation is advised.

Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000034388 SCV000600091 pathogenic not provided 2020-01-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing In the published literature, 6%-7% of Ashkenazi Jewish individuals are reported to carry this variant, with a much higher frequency found in cohorts of Ashkenazi Jewish individuals with a history of colorectal cancer and/or polyps (PMIDs: 11159880 (2001), 10938175 (2000), 9288102 (1997)). This variant is reported as a risk factor for colorectal neoplasia (PMIDs: 30152102 (2019), 29506128 (2018), 26421687 (2016), 26314409 (2016), 23896379 (2013)). The risk of colorectal cancer for Ashkenazi Jewish carriers of the p.Ile1307Lys APC variant is reported to be approximately twice that of the general population (PMID: 23576677 (2013)). While this variant has been associated with a moderately increased risk of colorectal cancer, it is important to note that the p.Ile1307Lys variant does not cause classic Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP). The risk for cancers other than colorectal cancer, and the risk of colorectal cancer for groups other than the Ashkenazi Jewish population, have not been well established.
ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000034388 SCV000602533 established risk allele not provided 2023-12-19 criteria provided, single submitter curation The APC c.3920T>A; p.Ile1307Lys variant (rs1801155) has been reported extensively in the literature, and is listed in ClinVar (Variation ID: 822). One recent meta-analysis of 30 published population studies, all of which examined the association between p.Ile1307Lys and colorectal neoplasia, colorectal adenoma, and/or colorectal cancer, concluded that this variant confers a two-fold increased risk of developing a colorectal neoplasia to persons of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry (Liang 2013 and references therein). However, the risk in other populations is unclear. Additionally, this variant is observed in the general population at an overall frequency of 0.19% (524/282418 alleles, including 7 homozygotes) in the Genome Aggregation Database. Due to the high frequency in the general population, this variant is considered likely benign for most populations, but confers an increased risk of cancer in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000115087 SCV000686956 established risk allele Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-04-05 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces isoleucine with lysine at codon 1307 of the APC protein. This variant is common in the population and has been identified in 524/282418 chromosomes (0.19%) in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In particular, this variant has been identified in 375/10358 Ashkenazi Jewish chromosomes (3.62%), including 7 homozygous individuals, by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Several large case-control studies and meta-analyses have reported a slightly increased risk of colorectal cancer in Ashkenazi Jewish individuals who carried this p.Ile1307Lys variant: OR=1.51 [95% CI 1.16-1.98] (PMID: 23896379); OR=2.17 [95% CI 1.64-2.86] (PMID: 23576677); OR=2.53 [95% CI 2.11-3.04] (PMID: 26421687). However, the cancer risk remains unclear in individuals of non-Ashkenazi Jewish descent. One study has shown that this variant did not show significant association with colorectal cancer in non-Ashkenazi Jewish individuals (OR=1.36, 95% CI=0.59-3.13) (PMID: 23576677).
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000120049 SCV000694042 uncertain significance not specified 2024-07-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: APC c.3920T>A (p.Ile1307Lys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0024 in 254250 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 7 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within the Ashkenazi Jewish subpopulation is nearly 33-fold the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in APC causing the Colorectal Cancer Risk phenotype (0.0011), suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Ashkenazi-Jewish origin. However, multiple case-control studies have reported this variant with increased risk for colorectal cancer within the Ashkenazi Jewish population (e.g. Laken_1997, Gryfe_1999, Drucker_2000, Shtoyerman-Chen_2001, Fidder_2005, Boursi_2013). c.3920T>A has also been reported in the literature in individuals affected with non-colorectal cancer phenotypes (e.g. Maxwell_2016, Feliubadalo_2017, Schubert_2019, Fanale_2020, Akcay_2020), however these reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Colorectal Cancer Risk. A large meta-analysis concluded that the variant increases the risk of colorectal cancer by approximately 2-fold in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry (OR=2.17, 95% CI=1.65-2.86), however the variant was not associated with additional risk in Non-Ashkenazi Jewish individuals in this study (Liang_2013). Another large case-control study identified the variant as a risk factor for non-colorectal cancers in an Israeli population (Leshno_2016). Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variants have been reported [BRCA1 c.68_69del, p.E23VfsX17 (Yurgelun_2017); RAD51C c.630T>G, p.Tyr210X (internal sample); MSH6 c.3743_3744insT, p.Tyr1249LeufsTer26 (Zhang_2020)], providing some supporting evidence for a benign role, however most case-control studies in the Ashkenazi-Jewish population support classification of the variant as a risk-factor for colorectal cancer. While there is insufficient evidence to determine risk in individuals without Ashkenazi-Jewish heritage, in-vivo and in-vitro studies have indicated that this germline variant may result in a much more highly mutable allele by creating an (A)8 mononucloetide tract that has a higher propensity for somatic frameshift mutations (e.g. Laken_1997, Gryfe_1998). Current NCCN guidelines recommend colorectal cancer surveillance measures for carriers of this variant due to association with a higher colorectal cancer risk. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32658311, 30980208, 18343606, 23896379, 28749474, 11207040, 30152102, 10679643, 32854451, 28050010, 15929773, 9973276, 9751605, 26187149, 9288102, 26421687, 23576677, 27153395, 25604157, 27978560, 30814645, 30426508, 26394139, 26845104, 11551102, 26300997, 14633595, 29961768, 28135145, 24416237, 31444830). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 822). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic.

GeneKor MSA RCV000115087 SCV000821694 risk factor Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2020-01-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces Isoleucine with Lysine at codon 1307 of the APC protein. The isoleucine residue is mildly conserved among species and is located in a known functional domain of the protein. There is a big physiochemical difference between isoleucine and lysine (Grantham Score 102). This variant is listed in population databases (rs1801155, ExAC 0.3) and is a common finding in individuals of Ashkenazi (~6-10%) and Sephardic Jewish decent (~3%; PMID: 9288102 ,23896379 ).Multiple studies have associated this variant with a moderate increase in the risk of colorectal cancer in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry, in whom this variant is identified in 28% of cases with familial colorectal cancer (PMID: 9288102 ). In a recent meta-analysis the risk of colorectal cancer development was estimated to be increased 2-fold in Ashkenazi Jewish individuals carrying this variant, while this increase was not evident in other populations (PMID: 23576677). The mutation database ClinVar contains multiple entries for this variant (Variation ID:822).

Human Genome Sequencing Center Clinical Lab, Baylor College of Medicine RCV000020088 SCV000839876 risk factor Familial adenomatous polyposis 1 2017-06-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.3920T>A (p.Ile1307Lys) variant in the APC gene has been reported as a common risk allele associated with familial colorectal cancer in the Ashkenazi Jewish population [PMID 18770064, 24416237]. The c.3920T>A variant has been reported to result in an adenine replacing a thymine and creating an oligo-adenine (A8) tract that appears to be inherently prone to further somatic mis-pairing and slippage during DNA replication, thereby creating a frameshift change [PMID 9288102, 18770064 and 244162370]. However, this variant has also been reported at a high frequency, present in 6% of Ashkenazi Jews and about 28% of Ashkenazim with a family history of colorectal cancer [PMID: 9288102]. Isoleucine at amino acid position 1307 of the APC protein is weakly conserved during evolution. While not validated for clinical use, the SIFT and PolyPhen-2 algorithms predict this variant to be benign. Ashkenazi Jews who carry the p.Ile1307Lys variant are at increased risk for colorectal neoplasia: the risk for colorectal neoplasia in heterozygous Ashkenazi Jewish individuals was estimated to be between 1.7 to 2.17 compared to non carrier individuals [PMID 12173321, 23576677, 23896379]. This variant is classified as as a risk allele with an increased risk for colorectal neoplasia in the Ashkenazi Jewish population. However the risk in non Jewish populations has not been determined.

This variant has been observed in multiple ethnic backgrounds with highest frequencies in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry (3.6% Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD); rs1801155) and is present in ClinVar (ID: 822). Several large studies and meta-analyses have reported odds ratios 1.51-2.53 for developing colorectal cancer in Ashkenazi Jewish population (OR=1.51 [95% CI 1.16-1.98] Boursi 2013, OR=2.17 [95% CI 1.64-2.86] Liang 2013, OR=2.53 [95% CI 2.11-3.04] Leshno 2016). However, the cancer risk remains unknown in individuals of non-Jewish descent. This variant introduces a polyA(8) region that is subject to slippage during DNA replication, which increases the susceptibility for somatic changes (Laken 1997, Gryfe 1998). In summary, this variant is an established risk factor for colorectal cancer.

The variant affects a conserved residue located in beta-catening binding domain and changes the (A)3(T)(A)4 sequence element into an extended tract of adenosine nucleotides (A8) which might predispose to slippage of polymerase during DNA replication and confer increased propensity for somatic truncating mutations on the allele [PMID: 37076288]. It has been reported that individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry who carry the p.(Ile1307Lys) variant are 1.7-2.17 times more likely to develop colorectal neoplasia compared to non-carrier individuals [PMID: 23896379, 23576677, 12173321], hence this variant is classified as a risk allele for colorectal neoplasia in the Ashkenazi Jewish population.

Several large studies have showed increased risk for developing colorectal cancer in Ashkenazi Jewish population. However, the cancer risk remains unknown in individuals of non-Jewish descent. In summary, this variant is an established risk factor for colorectal cancer in Ashkenazi Jewish populations and variant of uncertain significance in other populations.
Neuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM RCV001195214 SCV005329449 uncertain significance Colorectal cancer 2023-05-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The observed missense variant c.3920T>A (p.Ile1307Lys) in APC gene has been reported previously in heterozygous state in multiple individuals affected with Colorectal cancer (Breen KE et al. 2022; Long JM et al. 2022). The p.Ile1307Lys variant has allele frequency 0.2% in gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been submitted to the ClinVar database as Likely Benign / Uncertain Significance / Risk factor / Established risk allele / Likely pathogenic / Pathogenic (multiple submiters). Multiple lines of computational evidence (Polyphen - Benign, SIFT -Tolerated and Mutation Taster - Disease causing) predicts conflicting evidence on protein structure and function for this variant. The amino acid change p.Ile1307Lys in APC is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Ile at position 1307 is changed to a Lys changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. Functional studies related to this variant is unclear, the variant is enriched in patients with colorectal cancer in Ashkenazi Jewish population (Boursi B et al. 2013). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as a Pathogenic variant which acts as a risk factor for the development of colorectal cancer.

The in silico tool REVEL predicts a benign effect on protein function, but to our knowledge this prediction has not been confirmed by functional studies. This variant affects a conserved residue located in the critical β-catenin binding domain. This variant is associated with an elevated risk (OR 1.7-1.8) of developing colorectal cancer in the Ashkenazi Jewish population (PMID: 37076288). Risks to other populations are not well established. This variant is not known to be associated with polyposis. In summary, this variant is classified as pathogenic with evidence indicating lower penetrance according to International Society for Gastrointestinal Hereditary Tumours (InSiGHT; PMID: 37076288).

In the Exome Aggregation Consortium database, the variant was identified 205 of 121054 chromosomes (frequency: 0.002), including 177 of 66620 alleles of European (Non-Finnish), 15 of 16502 of South Asian, 10 of 11546 of Latinos and 3 of 906 of Other alleles. The variant was not found in African, East Asian and Finnish populations. In the ClinVar database, the variant was identified by 8 submitters with conflicting classifications: classified as pathogenic by GeneReviews and by Ambry Genetics, (who used as assertion method the Ambry Genetics Dominant and X-linked criteria); GeneDx, Invitae, OMIM (2X) classified the variant as Risk Factor; Biesecker Laboratory ClinSeq Project-NHGRI classified the variant as Uncertain significance and ITMI did not provide a classification. The variant was identified in the UMD Colon cancer database and was classified as Neutral; in COSMIC it was identified in an adenocarcinoma tumour of the large intestine. In the InSIGHT database, the variant was identified 10X and classified as a low penetrance risk allele. The p.Ile1307 residue is not conserved in mammals and mouse has a valine at the 1307 position and fish and fruit fly carry the variant 1307Lys amino acid at this position, increasing the likelihood that this variant is benign. Computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant protein remains perfectly functional, yet the genetic alteration results in a small hypermutable region of DNA that may be prone to somatic mutations (Laken 1997). Several studies suggest that this variant increases risk of colon cancer. Woodage (1998) genotyped 5,081 Ashkenazi volunteers in a community survey, identifying 376 heterozygotes and 2 homozygotes (6.1%) and concluded that APC I1307K carriers have a modestly elevated risk of developing cancer (less than 2-fold). Woodage also emphasized that the large majority of I1307K carriers would not develop cancer of the colon. In addition, Gryfe (1999) identified the APC I1307K allele in 48 (10.1%) of 476 Ashkenazi Jewish subjects with adenomatous polyps and/or colorectal cancer. Compared with the frequency of 2 separate population control groups, the APC I1307K allele was associated with an estimated relative risk of 1.5 to 1.7 for colorectal neoplasia (P = 0.01). Compared with non-carriers, APC I1307K carriers had increased numbers of adenomas and colorectal cancers per patient, as well as a younger age at diagnosis. Fraying (1998), identified this variant in 3 individuals with multiple colonic adenomas, but also identified this variant in 8% of Ashkenazi controls from North London. In the most recent study (Boursi 2013), the variant was analyzed in 3305 Israelis undergoing colonoscopy; clinical data regarding potential risk factors were collected to determine if the p.Ile1307Lys variant was a risk factor in CRC in Ashkenazi Jews. This analysis included the prospective evaluation of 3305 consecutive Israeli subjects. Analysis consisted of high risk and average risk subjects. High risk (n=560) were diagnosed less than 60 years with family or personal history of CRC; Average risk (n=1779) were asymptomatic. It focused on a unique subpopulation of Ashkenazi Jews at average risk for CRC in order to assess the need to modify colonoscopy surveillance among p.I1307K carriers. Overall, the odds ratio for CRC among carriers was 1.51. Among average risk AJ patients the OR was 1.75 (adjusted for other risk factors). A recent meta-analysis of APC polymorphism and colorectal cancer from published data using pooled odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were calculated by using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software with a 2-tailed a-value of 0.05. Compared with those who carried the wild-type I1307K, Ashkenazi Jews who carried the I1307K variant were at a significantly increased risk for colorectal neoplasia, with a pooled odds ratio of 2.17 (95% confidence interval: 1.64-2.86)(Liang 2013). The authors suggest that the APC p.I1307K variant is an important risk factor for colorectal neoplasia in Ashkenazi Jews and carriers in this group should be considered for screening colonoscopy at the age of 40, to be repeated every 5 years, similar to recommendations in individuals with family history of colorectal cancer. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time, although this variant may be a low-penetrance allele that mildly increases the risk of developing colorectal cancer, it is not directly linked to a “polyposis” phenotype. Based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance in association with FAP. However, this variant is considered a risk factor for colorectal cancer.

Laboratory of Medical Genetics Unit, Bambino Gesù Children's Hospital RCV000115087 SCV005093810 established risk allele Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The c.3920T>A (p.Ile1307Lys) variant in the APC gene has been associated with a moderate increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), particularly in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish population [PMID 18770064, 24416237]. This variant has also been reported at a high frequency, present in 6% of Ashkenazi Jews and about 28% of Ashkenazim with a family history of colorectal cancer [PMID: 9288102]. There is not enough evidence to support an increased risk of cancer in other populations/subpopulations.
