Ambry Genetics RCV000130772 SCV000185665 likely benign Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2020-10-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.

GeneDx RCV000486075 SCV000566611 likely benign not provided 2021-03-26 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; A published in vitro functional assay suggests that this variant is able to rescue cell lethality (Mesman 2018); Observed in at least one individual with breast or ovarian cancer (Azzollini 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25348012, 11929857, 29988080, 24817641, 27062684, 32854451, 29684080)
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000486075 SCV000887759 uncertain significance not provided 2023-07-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing In the published literature, this variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 35402282 (2022), 34178674 (2021), 32854451 (2020)), and Cowden Syndrome/Cowden Syndrome-like Bannayan-Riley Ruvalcaba Syndrome (PMID: 29684080 (2018)). Published functional studies have reported that this variant does not have a deleterious effect on BRCA2 protein function (PMID: 29988080 (2018)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000012 (3/248932 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000780024 SCV000917027 uncertain significance not specified 2018-09-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA2 c.1769T>G (p.Phe590Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 244108 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1769T>G has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer who was indicated to carry another pathogenic variant, although the variant was not specified (Azzollini_2016). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in normal activity using multiple independent measures namely, complementation by BRCA2 variants of the cell lethal phenotype imposed by Cre-mediated loss of Brca2; HDR capacity, as measured by the repair of I-Sce1 induced double strand breaks (DSBs); and Cisplatin sensitivity of BRCA2 variants (Meman_2018). Four ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign.
