Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000044728 SCV000072741 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-01-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu1908Argfs*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 present in population databases (rs80359530, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 8524414, 20736950, 20927582, 21324516, 22535016, 23028338, 24963353, 25940717, 27553291). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as 5950delCT. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 9320). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000131120 SCV000186050 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-02-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.5722_5723delCT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 5722 to 5723, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.L1908Rfs*2). This mutation has been reported in multiple hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome cohorts, including individuals with male breast cancer, pancreatic cancer and prostate cancer (Wooster R et al. Nature. 1995 Dec;378:789-92; Edwards SM et al. Br. J. Cancer. 2010 Sep;103:918-24; Cherbal F et al. Dis Markers, 2010;28:377-84; Ding YC et al. Breast Cancer Res.

Sci Rep, 2021 07;11:14906). Of note, this mutation is also designated as 5950delCT and c.5718_5719del 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.

It has also been identified in 0.003% (1/30598) of South Asian chromosomes by 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 1908 and leads to a premature termination codon 2 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. Additionally, this variant was classified as pathogenic on April 22, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (Variation ID 9320). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant HBOC. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PVS1, PS4, PM2_Supporting.

This variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 30940775 (2019), 32341426 (2020), 34290354 (2021)), including male individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 20927582 (2011), 23028338 (2012)). This variant has also been reported in individuals with prostate cancer (PMID: 20736950 (2010)), and pancreatic cancer (PMID: 25940717 (2015), 31577767 (2019)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/250888 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 also known as 5950delCT, 5946delCT and 5950-5951delCT in the literature. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in at least 12 individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 8665505, 14647210, 19353265, 20683152, 21324516, 24010542, 25136594, 26026974, 27553291, 28724667, 29470806, 30287823, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_001607) and five individuals affected with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 24963353, 25940717) or prostate cancer (PMID: 20736950, 31214711). This variant also has been reported in families suspected of being affected with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 8524414, 11802209, 15340362, 16234499, 25863477). This variant has been identified in 1/250888 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.

This variant has been reported in multiple unrelated individuals with breast cancer or ovarian cancer (PMID 8524414, 20927582, 21324516, 24010542, 25863477, 27553291), pancreatic cancer (PMID 25940717) and prostate cancer (PMID 20736950). This variant is extremely rare in general population database. Therefore, this c.5722_5723del (p.Leu1908Argfs*2) variant in the BRCA2 gene is classified as pathogenic.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000044728 SCV001572444 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2021-04-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA2 c.5722_5723delCT (p.Leu1908ArgfsX2) 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 4e-06 in 250888 control chromosomes. c.5722_5723delCT has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (example, Rebbeck_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories, an expert panel (ENIGMA) and a consortium (CIMBA) 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.

This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 9320) and is classified as pathogenic by an expert panel. This variant is only observed on one allele in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting 2 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 Cherbal F et al. BRCA1 and BRCA2 germline mutations screening in Algerian breast/ovarian cancer families.
