Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000044254 SCV000072267 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2023-12-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser1248Argfs*10) 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 (rs80359403, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast/ovarian cancer (PMID: 11802209, 16455195, 18489799, 19656164, 26187060). This variant is also known as 3972del4. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37856). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000131096 SCV000186026 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-01-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.3744_3747delTGAG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 3744 to 3747, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S1248Rfs*10). This alteration has been reported in multiple breast and/or ovarian cancer families (Foretova L et al. Hum. Mutat. 2004 Apr;23:397-8; Li WF et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2008 Jul;110:99-109; Jang JH et al. J. Hum. Genet. 2012 Mar;57:212-5; Song WH et al. J. Korean Med. Sci. 2017 Feb;32:377-381; Park B et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2017 May;163:139-150; Concolino P et al. Int J Mol Sci, 2019 Jul;20:; Bang YJ et al. Cancer Res Treat, 2021 Oct;:). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 3972_3975delTGAG and 3972del4 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 interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000131096 SCV000683579 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-01-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant deletes 4 nucleotides in exon 11 of the BRCA2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been observed in over twenty individuals affected with breast cancer and is known to be a recurrent disease-causing mutation in the Korean population (PMID: 25863477, 26187060, 28205045, 34063308). This variant has been identified in 1/246600 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000044254 SCV000694716 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2022-07-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA2 c.3744_3747delTGAG (p.Ser1248ArgfsX10) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.1e-06 in 246600 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.3744_3747delTGAG has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And/or Ovarian Cancer (examples: Kang_2015, Minucci_2015 and Song_2017). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Thirteen submitters including an expert panel (ENIGMA) have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV001002405 SCV001160335 pathogenic not specified 2019-02-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The BRCA2 c.3744_3747delTGAG; p.Ser1248fs variant (rs80359403) is reported in the literature in numerous individuals with a personal or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (Machackova 2008, Meindl 2002, Park 2016, Park 2017, Seong 2009). This variant is found on a single chromosome in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism, and it is reported as pathogenic by numerous laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 37856). This variant causes a frameshift by deleting four nucleotides, 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: Machackova E et al.

Division of Medical Genetics, University of Washington RCV000031437 SCV001434320 pathogenic Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 2 2020-03-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant leads to a translational frameshift and the introduction of a premature termination codon at position 10 of the new reading frame. The variant transcript is predicted to be unstable and degraded by nonsense-mediated decay. Loss of expression of one allele of BRCA2 is a well-established mechanism of disease for Hereditary Breast and Ovarian cancer (Borg 2010). This variant has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals and families with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Meindl 2001, Ahn 2007, Machackova 2008, Seong 2009, Kwong 2016). This variant has an allele frequency of 0.000004 in the Broad Institute gnomAD Browser (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). Thus, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic. PS4-moderate; PVS1
