Ambry Genetics RCV000129760 SCV000184567 benign Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2014-11-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This alteration is classified as 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.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000120321 SCV004099929 likely benign not specified 2023-09-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA2 c.4779A>C (p.Glu1593Asp) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00037 in 250646 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.003 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within South Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 4 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome phenotype (0.00075), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of South Asian origin. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variant(s) have been reported (BRCA1 c.66_67delAG, p.Leu22_Glu23LeuValfs), providing supporting evidence for a benign role (BIC database). Nine submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified as Benign/likely benign (n=8) and VUS (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV001353910 SCV000591926 benign Malignant tumor of breast no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The BRCA2 p.Glu1593Asp variant was identified in 5 of 222 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.023) from individuals with breast or ovarian cancer and was absent in 88 control chromosomes from these studies (Soumittra 2009, Saxena 2002). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80358703) “With allele of Uncertain significance”, LOVD, and the BIC database (3X with unknown clinical importance). This residue is conserved in mammals but not lower organisms, and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein. In addition, Myriad classifies this variant as a polymorphism (personal communication). In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory's criteria to be classified as benign.
