Ambry Genetics RCV000165093 SCV000215800 likely benign Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2018-10-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: 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.

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 2.8e-05 in 250434 control chromosomes (gnomAD and Guo_2020). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2716A>G has been reported in the literature as a non-informative genotype in at-least one patient with Ovarian adenocarcinoma (Aref-Eshghi_2020). This report however, does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. At-least one co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been reported (BRCA1 c.3664G>T, p.Glu1222X), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as benign (n=1) or likely benign (n=4). Based on the lack of evidence supporting an actionable outcome as outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign to reflect the prevailing peer consensus.

Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV001719708 SCV004219552 uncertain significance not provided 2023-05-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000045 (5/112094 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In a large-scale breast cancer association study, the variant was observed in 8 individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRCA2)). The variant has also been reported as somatic variant in an ovarian cancer tumor (PMID: 32483276 (2020)) as well as in an unaffected individual (PMID: 31837001 (2020)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant.
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV003914880 SCV004729868 likely benign BRCA2-related condition 2019-05-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is classified as likely benign based on ACMG/AMP sequence variant interpretation guidelines (Richards et al. 2015 PMID: 25741868, with internal and published modifications).

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV000031379 SCV000591817 likely benign Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 2 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The BRCA2 p.Thr906Ala variant was not identified in the literature, nor was it identified in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (Exome Variant Server), HGMD, UMD, or LOVD databases. The variant was listed in dbSNP (ID: rs80358528) “With non-pathogenic allele”; however, no frequency information was provided, thus the prevalence of this variant in the general population could not be determined. The variant was identified in the BIC database 3X as a variant with unknown clinical importance, and was classified as a benign variant by the Sharing Clinical Reports Project (SCRP) (submitted within the ClinVar database and derived from Myriad reports). The p.Thr906 residue is not conserved across mammals and lower organisms, and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein. However, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as predicted benign.
