Ambry Genetics RCV000165362 SCV000216088 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-01-30 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.1029delA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 1029, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.K343Nfs*6). This mutation has been described in multiple breast and/or ovarian cancer patients (Risch HA et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2001 Mar;68:700-10; Meyer P et al. PLoS ONE. 2012;7:e38361; Cunningham JM et al. Sci Rep. 2014 Feb;4:4026). In one case control study, this alteration was detected in 2/2222 individuals with invasive epithelial ovarian cancer and 0/1528 matched controls (Song H et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 2014 Sep;23:4703-9). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.

The variant of interest was not observed in controls (1000 Gs, ExAC or ESP) and has been reported in multiple affected individuals via publications. In addition, multiple reputable databases/clinical laboratories cite the variant with a classification of "pathogenic." Therefore, taking all available lines of evidence into consideration, the variant of interest is classified as Pathogenic.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000496804 SCV001581181 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-12-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys343Asnfs*6) in the BRCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with personal and/or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 11179017, 21990299, 22666503, 24728189, 26556299). This variant is also known as 1257delA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37724). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000218354 SCV004564539 pathogenic not provided 2023-10-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The BRCA2 c.1029del; p.Lys343AsnfsTer6 variant (rs80359260), also known as 1257delA, is reported in the literature in several individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Cunningham 2014, Meyer 2012, Risch 2001, Schrader 2016, Song 2014). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 37724), and is only observed on one allele in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting a single nucleotide, so it is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Cunningham JM et al. Clinical characteristics of ovarian cancer classified by BRCA1, BRCA2, and RAD51C status.
