Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000203644 SCV000071792 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2025-01-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys437Ilefs*22) 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 present in population databases (rs80359277, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 8988179, 12955716, 18465347, 20683152, 22144684, 25863477). This variant is also known as 1538del4 and 1529del4. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37737). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000131062 SCV000185992 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-03-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.1310_1313delAAGA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 1310 to 1313, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.K437Ifs*22). This mutation has been detected in numerous European, Asian, and African breast/ovarian cohorts to date and has been described as a founder in several populations (Diez O et al. Hum. Mutat. 2003 Oct;22:301-12; Thomassen M et al. Acta Oncol. 2008;47:772-7; Cherbal F et al. Dis. Markers. 2010;28:377-84; Zhang S et al. Gynecol. Oncol. 2011 May;121:353-7; Caputo S et al.

Lett. 2016 Aug;12:1192-1196; Sun J et al. Clin. Cancer Res. 2017 Oct;23:6113-6119; Laarabi FZ et al. BMC Res Notes. 2017 Jun;10:188; Li JY et al. Int. J. Cancer. 2019 Jan;144(2):281-289). It has also been identified in individuals with Fanconi anemia (Malric A et al. Pediatr. Blood Cancer. 2015 Mar;62(3):463-70). Of note, this alteration is also designated as c.1301_1304del4, 1310del4, 1538del4, 1538_1541del4, and 1538_1541delAAGA in published literature. 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 classified as a disease-causing mutation. However, because this variant is identified in one or more patients with Fanconi Anemia it may be hypomorphic and thus, carriers of this variant and their families may present with reduced risks, and not with the typical clinical characteristics of a high-risk pathogenic BRCA2 alteration. As risk estimates are unknown at this time, clinical correlation is advised.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000203644 SCV000694532 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2017-05-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.1310_1313delAAGA (p.Lys437Ilefs) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BRCA2 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g.c.1456C>T (p.Gln486X) and c.1654delT (p.Ser552fs)). This variant was found in 1/120430 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000083, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRCA2 variant (0.0007503). This variant has been reported in multiple HBOC patients. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000203644 SCV004848270 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2022-02-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Lys437IlefsX22 variant in BRCA2 has been reported in the heterozygous state in >30 individuals with BRCA2-associated cancers (Gayther 1997 PMID: 8988179, Caputo 2012 PMID: 22144684, Laarabi 2017 PMID: 28577564, BIC database: https://research.nhgri.nih.gov/bic/) and in the homozygous state in a child with Fanconi anemia (Malric 2015 PMID: 25381700). This variant has also been identified in 0.009% (1/10618) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org, v3.1). This frequency is low enough to be consistent with the frequency of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) in the general population. The p.Lys437IlefsX22 variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 437 and leads to a premature termination codon 22 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the BRCA2 gene is an established disease mechanism in HBOC. Additionally, this variant was classified as pathogenic on Apr. 22, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (ClinVar Variation ID: 37737). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant HBOC. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PS4, PM2_Supporting.

However, no control chromosomes were evaluated (Caux-Moncoutier_2009, Caux-Moncoutier_2011). The variant was also identified in the UMD database (34x) as "causal" and in the BIC database (10x) as having "clinical importance". This deletion is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 437 and leads to a premature stop codon 22 codons downstream. This alteration is then predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants in the BRCA2 gene are an established disease mechanism in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

The lysine at protein position 437 is replaced by isoleucine and is followed by a premature stop codon after 22 additional amino acids. The premature stop codon is predicted to cause non-sense mediated decay and a truncated or absent of the gene product. The variant is classified as very rare with an allele frequency on the overall population= 0.000033 (gnomAD V3.1.2). The variant has already detected in numerous breast cancer/ovarian cancer affected individuals (PMID: 20104584, 28577564, 33726785, 26843898) and was including as a founder mutation in several populations (PMID: 12955716, 18465347, 22144684, 22217648). There are 30 entries for this variant as pathogenic in ClinVar (VCV000037737.57). The variant is classified as Pathogenic.
