GeneDx RCV000497279 SCV000210741 pathogenic not provided 2017-06-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This duplication of one nucleotide is denoted BRCA2 c.3860dupA at the cDNA level and p.Asn1287LysfsX2 (N1287KfsX2) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the base that is duplicated in brackets, is GAAAAAA[dupA]TAAT. The duplication causes a frameshift, which changes an Asparagine to a Lysine at codon 1287, and creates a premature stop codon at position 2 of the new reading frame. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. BRCA2 3860dupA, previously reported as 4081insA or 4088insA, has been observed previously in association with breast and/or ovarian cancer and is reported to be a founder variant in the Finnish population (Sarantaus 2000, Hartikainen 2007, Karami 2013). We consider this variant to be pathogenic.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000772033 SCV000905011 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-04-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant inserts 1 nucleotide 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 is also known as 4088insA and 4081insA in the literature. This variant has been reported in individuals with a personal or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 11039575, 15642173, 18214034, 29446198). It has been shown that this variant segregates with disease in five individuals of one family (PMID: 18214034). This variant has not been identified 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.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000496333 SCV001577950 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-01-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asn1287Lysfs*2) 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 or at high risk of breast and/or ovarian cancer and hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) (PMID: 11039575, 18214034, 29446198). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as 4081insA or 4088insA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 51546). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000772033 SCV002622908 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-05-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.3860dupA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a duplication of A at nucleotide position 3860, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.N1287Kfs*2). This alteration segregated in a Finnish family with histories of breast, ovarian, and prostate cancer (Hartikainen JM et al. Anticancer Res., 2007 27(6C):4295-300). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 4088insA in the published literature. 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.
