Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000044967 SCV000072980 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2025-01-30 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys2162Asnfs*5) 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 (rs770263702, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and ovarian cancer, male breast cancer, and prostate cancer (PMID: 19949876, 20736950, 23479189, 24145998, 24156927, 25586199, 25896959, 26026974, 26360800, 26681312). This variant is also known as 6710delACAA or 6714delACAA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38048). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000131034 SCV000185964 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2024-10-31 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.6486_6489delACAA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 6486 to 6489, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.K2162Nfs*5). This alteration has been reported in multiple cohorts of individuals and families with early-onset or familial breast cancer (Bergthorsson JT et al. J. Med. Genet. 2001 Jun;38:361-8; Thomassen M et al. Acta. Oncol. 2008;47:772-7; de Juan Jiménez I et al. Fam. Cancer. 2013 Dec;12:767-77; Sambiasi D et al. Oncol. Rep. 2014 Jan;31:365-9; D'Argenio V et al. Clin. Chim. Acta. 2015 Jun;446:221-5; Hoyer J et al. BMC Cancer. 2018 Sep;18:926; Millan Catalan O et al. Cancers (Basel). 2019 Aug;11:; Abdel-Razeq H et al. Sci Rep. 2021 07;11:14906), as well as patients with prostate, ovarian, and pancreatic cancer diagnoses (Edwards SM et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2003 Jan;72:1-12; Edwards SM et al. Br. J. Cancer. 2010 Sep;103:918-24; Roed Nielsen H et al. Acta. Oncol. 2016 Sep;55:38-44; Pishvaian MJ et al. Br J Cancer. 2017 Apr;116:1021-1026; Li A et al. Gynecol Oncol. 2018 10;151:145-152). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 6714del4 and 6710delACAA 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 has been reported in the published literature in individuals with breast cancer (PMIDs: 36292577 (2022), 35864222 (2022), 34290354 (2021), 32862574 (2020), 31957001 (2020), 30257646 (2018), 29339979 (2018), 26681312 (2015), 23479189 (2013), 21847643 (2012)), ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 32872764 (2020), 29084914 (2018), 23479189 (2013)), and prostate cancer (PMIDs: 33804961 (2021), 26360800 (2016), 12474142 (2003), 10969800 (2000)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0000086 (2/232332 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 6714delACAA, 6714del4, 6710delACAA and 6710del4 in the literature. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been detected in over 10 individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 10978364, 11389159, 18694767, 20104584, 23479189, 24145998, 25371446, 25452441, 25586199, 26026974, 26360800, 26681312, 29084914, 30702160, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA2_000162) and is reported as a recurrent mutation in Danish hereditary breast and ovarian cancer families (PMID: 18465347). This variant also has been reported in one individual each affected with pancreatic and prostate cancer (PMID: 10969800, 28291774). This variant has been identified in 2/232332 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.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000044967 SCV000694978 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2017-08-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.6486_6489delACAA (p.Lys2162Asnfs) variant (alternatively also known as 6714del4 and 6710delACAA) results in deletion of 4 nucleotides from exon 11 of the BRCA2 mRNA, causing a frameshift that creates a premature stop codon. This is predicted to cause a truncated or absent (due to nonsense mediated decay) BRCA2 protein, which is a commonly known mechanism for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. c.6591_6592delTG (p.Glu2198fs), c.7069_7070delCT (p.Leu2357fs), etc.) This variant was found in the large and broad control populations from ExAC in 2/ 118868 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000168, which does not exceed maximal expected frequency of a pathogenic allele (0.0007503). This variant has been reported in numerous HBOC patients, including male breast cancer and prostate cancer patients (Plaschke_2000, Bergthorsson_2001, Thomassen_2008, Tommasi_2008, Alsop_2012, de Juan_2015, Nielsen_ 2017) and also in a female patient with pancreatic cancer (Pishvaian_2017). In addition, multiple clinical laboratories/reputable databases have classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant was classified as pathogenic.

ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV001002473 SCV001160421 pathogenic not specified 2019-03-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The BRCA2 c.6486_6489delACAA; p.Lys2162fs variant (rs80359598) has been reported in individuals affected with breast (de Juan Jimenez 2013), ovarian (Li 2018, Shi 2017), or prostate cancer (Edwards 2003, Edwards 2010). This variant is classified as pathogenic by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 38048), and it is observed on only two chromosomes (2/232332 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 to be pathogenic. References: de Juan Jimenez I et al.

This variant has been previously reported in multiple unrelated individuals affected with BRCA2-associated disorders [PMID: 10660329; PMID:12474142; PMID:23479189; PMID:26360800; PMID:29339979]. This variant has also been reported as Pathogenic in ClinVar by multiple independent laboratories (Variation ID: 38048). The variant has 0.00001972 allele frequency in the gnomAD(v3) database (3 out of 152128 heterozygous alleles, no homozygotes) indicating it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in that database. Based on the available evidence, the heterozygousc.6486_6489del (p.Lys2162AsnfsTer5) frameshift variant identified in the BRCA2 gene is reported as Pathogenic.

It has been identified in 1/26026 South Asian and 1/29656 Latino chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant was classified as Pathogenic on April 22, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (Variation ID 38048). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 2162 and leads to a premature termination codon 5 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the BRCA2 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PS4, PM2.
