Invitae RCV000226629 SCV000283223 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-01-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asp1337Ilefs*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 variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BRCA2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 236860). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000226629 SCV000694729 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2022-12-15 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA2 c.4007_4008insCATC (p.Asp1337IlefsX2) 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 was absent in 230396 control chromosomes. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.4007_4008insCATC in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories and an expert panel have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000774946 SCV000909032 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2020-05-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant inserts 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. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. 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.
Ambry Genetics RCV000774946 SCV001183289 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-03-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.4007_4008insCATC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from an insertion of 4 nucleotides at position 4007, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.D1337Ifs*2). 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.
Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV000506343 SCV000591883 pathogenic not provided no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The BRCA2 p.Asp1337IlefsX2 insertion variant was not identified in the literature, nor was it identified in the dbSNP, NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (Exome Variant Server), Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC), HGMD, LOVD, COSMIC, ClinVar, GeneInsight VariantWire, BIC or UMD databases. The p.Asp1337IlefsX2 insertion variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 1337 and leads to a premature stop codon at position 1338. This alteration is then predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the BRCA2 gene are an established mechanism of disease in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic.
