Invitae	RCV000045083	SCV000073096	uncertain significance	Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome	2024-02-01	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2293 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Phe2293Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs80358912, gnomAD 0.06%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 12442275, 30262796, 34196900). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52216). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BRCA2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on BRCA2 function (PMID: 21741379). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	RCV000132016	SCV000683825	uncertain significance	Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome	2023-06-22	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This missense variant replaces phenylalanine with leucine at codon 2293 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in 1 individual affected with breast cancer and 1 unaffected individual (PMID: 15889636, 31331294). This variant has been identified in 17/248864 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	RCV000779926	SCV000916853	likely benign	not specified	2023-08-04	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Variant summary: BRCA2 c.6877T>C (p.Phe2293Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.2e-05 in 249144 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0005 within the Latino subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in BRCA2 causing Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (7.2e-05 vs 0.00075), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.6877T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals of Mexican descent who were affected with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (Ruiz-Flores_2002, Calderon-Garciduenas_2005, Quezada_2018), however without strong evidence for causality (such as co-segregation data). These reports therefore, do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer. The variant was also found in a healthy control of Latino origin (Zayas-Villanueva_2019). Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variants have been reported (in the BIC database: BRCA1 c.798_799delTT (p.Val266_Ser267ValLysfs); and in an internal LCA sample: BRCA2 c.6078_6079delAA (p.Glu2028fsX20)), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function evaluating cell survival and apoptotic index of stably transfected cell lines treated with cisplatin. These results showed no damaging effect of this variant (Warren 2011). Eight submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified as VUS (n=7) and likely benign (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.
ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories	RCV000174215	SCV001158078	uncertain significance	not provided	2020-04-13	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	The BRCA2 c.6877T>C; p.Phe2293Leu variant (rs80358912) is reported in the literature in several individuals affected with breast cancer (Calderon-Garciduenas 2005, Quezada Urban 2018, Ruiz-Flores 2002). This variant is found in Latino population with an overall allele frequency of 0.05% (17/34230 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The phenylalanine at codon 2293 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. However, a peptide containing this variant exhibited apoptotic effects on cultured cells similar to a wildtype peptide (Warren 2002), although the physiological relevance of this assay is uncertain. Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Phe2293Leu variant is uncertain at this time. References: Calderon-Garciduenas AL et al.
