Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000195404 SCV000073149 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-01-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu2357Valfs*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 (rs756538291, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 9429140, 21324516, 24504028, 24728189). This variant is also known as 7297delCT. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38082). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000131032 SCV000185962 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-01-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.7069_7070delCT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 13 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 7069 to 7070, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.L2357Vfs*2). This mutation has been reported in multiple hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) cohorts (Garvin AM et al. J. Med. Genet. 1997 Dec;34:990-5; Thomassen M et al. Acta Oncol. 2008;47:772-7; Borg A et al. Hum. Mutat. 2010 Mar;31:E1200-40; Zhang S et al. Gynecol. Oncol. 2011 May;121:353-7; Litton JK et al. Cancer. 2012 Jan;118:321-5; Chong HK et al. PLoS ONE, 2014 May;9:e97408; Song H et al. Hum Mol Genet, 2014 Sep;23:4703-9; Labidi-Galy SI et al. Clin. Cancer Res. 2018 Jan;24:326-333; Heramb C et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2018 Jan;16:3; Bertelsen B et al. NPJ Genom Med, 2019 Jun;4:13). This mutation has also been reported in prostate and pancreatic cancer cohorts (Schwartz M et al. Clin Genet, 2019 12;96:579-584; Boyle JL et al. JCO Precis Oncol, 2020 Mar;4; Moses M et al. Oncotarget, 2020 Jan;11:15-21). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 7297delCT 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.

Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000195404 SCV000271332 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2019-04-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Leu2357ValfsX2 variant in BRCA2 has been identified in >30 individuals with BRCA2-associated cancers (Garvin 1997, Spearman 2008, Borg 2010, Caux-Moncoutier 2011, Zhang 2011, Breast Cancer Information Core (BIC) database). This variant has also been identified in 7/12892 European 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 2357 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 individuals with HBOC. In addition, this variant was classified as Pathogenic on April 22, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (ClinVar SCV000282439.1). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for HBOC in an autosomal dominant manner based upon the predicted impact to the protein.

This variant is also known as 7297delCT in the literature. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in over ten individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 9667259, 16234499, 18824701, 20104584, 21324516, 21913181, 24504028, 24549055, 24728189), as well as colorectal cancer (PMID: 27978560) and high grade prostate cancer (PMID: 34700141). This variant has been identified in 7/282332 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.

The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000054 (7/128928 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is consistent with pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 9429140 (1997)), ovarian cancer (PMID: 29084914 (2018), 30322717 (2018), 31263571 (2019)), colorectal cancer (PMID: 27978560 (2016)), and pancreatic cancer (PMID: 31948886 (2020), 32853339 (2021)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000195404 SCV000695036 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2017-08-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.7069_7070delCT (p.Leu2357Valfs) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BRCA2 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 (e.g., c.7133C>G [p.Ser2378X], c.7180A>T [p.Arg2394X], and c.7360delA [p.Ile2454fs). One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant was found in the large control database ExAC at a frequency of 0.000033 (4/121100 control chromosomes), which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BRCA2 variant (0.0007503). The variant has been identified in numerous patients in published reports (e.g., Thomassen_Acta Oncol_2008). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

The c.7069_7070delCT pathogenic variant in the BRCA2 gene, previously reported as 7297delCT using alternate nomenclature, has been published in association with early-onset breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and prostate cancer (Garvin et al., 1997; Zhang et al., 2011; Cunningham et al., 2014; Song et al., 2014; Ellingson et al., 2015; Decker et al., 2016). The deletion causes a frameshift and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Given that this is an adult-onset condition, the patient is not expected to be affected at this time. The patient's mother has not been formally evaluated in the oncology setting, so her current status is unknown.

It is listed as pathogenic in ClinVar (Variation ID: 38082) and is observed 7 times in the Genome Aggregation Database (7/276,822 alleles). This variant causes a frameshift by deleting two nucleotides, so it is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, the variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Caux-Moncoutier V et al.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV001353880 SCV000592097 pathogenic Malignant tumor of breast no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The BRCA2 p.Leu2357ValfsX2 variant was identified in 2 of 2856 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from individuals or families with Breast and/or Ovarian cancer (Garvin, 1997; Zhang, 2011). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80359636) “With pathogenic allele”, HGMD, LOVD, ClinVar database, the BIC database (31X with Important clinical importance), and UMD (34X as a class 5-causal variant). The variant was classified as a pathogenic variant by the Sharing Clinical Reports Project (SCRP) (submitted within the ClinVar database and derived from Myriad reports). The p.Leu2357ValfsX2 deletion variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 2357 and leads to a premature stop codon 2 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.
