Invitae RCV000044684 SCV000072697 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-01-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ile1859Lysfs*3) 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 (rs770318608, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 8705994, 22160602, 22217648, 23633455, 23683081). This variant is also known as 5803delATTA, 5804del4, and 5574_5577delAATT. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37975). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000131118 SCV000186048 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-01-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.5576_5579delTTAA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 5576 to 5579, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.I1859Kfs*3). This mutation has been reported in numerous hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) patients and families world-wide (Foster KA et al. Cancer Res. 1996 Aug;56:3622-5; Gonzalez-Angulo AM et al.

This mutation has also been identified in patients diagnosed with prostate and biliary tract cancer (Wardell CP et al. J Hepatol, 2018 05;68:959-969; Terashima T et al. Oncotarget, 2019 Oct;10:5949-5957; Momozawa Y et al. J Natl Cancer Inst, 2020 04;112:369-376; Power R et al. Fam Cancer, 2021 04;20:97-101). Of note, this alteration is also designated as c.5574_5577delAATT, 5803delATTA and 5804del4 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.

This variant is also known as 5802delTTAA, 5803delATTA, 5804_5808delTTAA, 5804del4 and c.5574_5577delAATT in the literature. This variant is expected to result in unstable variant messenger RNA, which is corroborated by an RNA analysis of allelic imbalance in expressed BRCA2 mRNA transcripts in a heterozygous variant carrier (PMID: 19471317). This variant has been reported in over 30 individuals affected with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 8705994, 11149425, 17262179, 20104584, 21233401, 22160602, 22713736, 22798144, 23479189, 23633455, 23683081, 24249303, 24578176, 24728189, 26848529). A Japanese breast cancer case-control study (PMID: 30287823) and a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_001464) have reported this variant in 27/7104 cases and 3/23731 unaffected controls and 16/60450 cases and 7/53454 unaffected controls, respectively. This variant also has been reported in a prostate cancer case-control study in 11/7636 prostate cancer cases and 2/12366 unaffected controls (PMID: 31214711). This variant has been identified in 4/244832 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.
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000160296 SCV000296678 pathogenic not provided 2023-08-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The BRCA2 c.5576_5579del (p.Ile1859Lysfs*3) variant alters the translational reading frame of the BRCA2 mRNA and causes the premature termination of BRCA2 protein synthesis. This variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals and families with breast/ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 35918668 (2022), 34645131 (2022), 31143373 (2019), 30287823 (2018), 23683081 (2013), 23633455 (2013), 22713736 (2012), 22217648 (2012), 22160602 (2012), 20104584 (2010)), and biliary track cancer (PMIDs: 32918181 (2021), 31666926 (2019)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000016 (4/244832 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

This variant is reported as pathogenic by several sources in the ClinVar database (Variation ID: 37975) and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.002% (4/244832 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. 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 pathogenic. References: Foster KA et al. Somatic and germline mutations of the BRCA2 gene in sporadic ovarian cancer.

Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000044684 SCV000605790 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2019-04-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Ile1859LysfsX3 variant in BRCA2 has been reported in >35 individuals with BRCA2-associated cancers (Saghir 2015, Kim 2016, Breast Cancer Information Core database). It has also been identified in 1/15994 African chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (GnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org); however, this frequency is low enough to be consistent with the frequency of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) in the general population. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 1859 and leads to a premature termination codon 3 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the BRCA2 gene is an established disease mechanism in HBOC. In addition, this variant was classified as Pathogenic on April 22, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (ClinVar SCV000282408.1). In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic for HBOC in an autosomal dominant manner. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PVS1, PS4, PM2.

Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (c.5585_5588delTGAA, c.5603_5606delACAG, c.5616_5620delAGTAA). The variant was observed in the large and broad cohorts of the ExAC project at an allele frequency of 0.003% which does not exceed the maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 (0.075%). The variant has been cited in numerous affected individuals via the literature and databases, and has been classified by multiple reputable databases and clinical labs as "pathogenic". Taken together, this variant has been classified as as Pathogenic.

The variant was identified in dbSNP (rs1255151416) as “NA”, ClinVar (classified as pathogenic by Invitae, Ambry Genetics, Color, GeneDx and 17 other submitters), LOVD 3.0 (observed 35x) and UMD-LSDB (observed 26x). The variant was identified in control databases in 4 of 244,832 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00002 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 1 of 15,994 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), European in 2 of 111,564 chromosomes (freq: 0.00002), and East Asian in 1 of 18,154 chromosomes (freq: 0.00006); it was not observed in the Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, South Asian, Finnish, or Other populations. The p.Ile1859Lysfs*3 variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 1859 and leads to a premature stop codon 3 codons downstream. 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.
