Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000034463 SCV000073479 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-01-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Thr2766Asnfs*11) 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 not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast, ovarian and/or prostate cancer (PMID: 8589730, 10682686, 12960223, 20736950, 23028338, 25085752, 26681312). This variant is also known as 8525delC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38149). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV000163359 SCV000213895 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-12-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.8297delC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 17 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 8297, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.T2766Nfs*11). This mutation was reported in one family with multiple cases of female and male breast cancer and ovarian cancer (Tavtigian SV et al. Nat. Genet. 1996 Mar;12:333-7). This alteration has also been reported in multiple men diagnosed with prostate cancer before the age of 55 (Edwards SM et al. Br. J. Cancer. 2010 Sep;103:918-24; Willems-Jones A et al. BJU Int. 2012 Dec;110:E1181-6; Castro E et al. J. Clin. Oncol. 2013 May;31:1748-57). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 8525delC 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.

The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0000066 (1/152178 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 expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in 9 individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 10682686, 12960223, 23146383, 25682074, 26681312, 26845104, 33471991), 3 individuals affected with prostate cancer (PMID: 20736950, 23569316), and 1 unaffected individual (PMID: 33471991). This variant has been identified in 70 families among the CIMBA participants (PMID: 29446198). This variant has not been identified 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 RCV000034463 SCV000695139 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2016-07-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.8297delC (p.Thr2766Asnfs) 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. The variant of interest was not found in controls (ExAC, 1000 Gs or ESP). Multiple publications cite the variant in affected individuals, along with multiple reputable databases/clinical laboratories citing the variant as "pathogenic." Therefore, taking all available lines of evidence into consideration, the variant of interest is classified as Pathogenic.

Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000034463 SCV000966960 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2018-02-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Thr2766AsnfsX11 (NM_000059.3 c.8297delC) variant in BRCA2 (also referred t o as c.8285delC in the literature) has been previously reported in many individu als and families with breast, ovarian or prostate cancer (Tavtigian 1996, Castro 2013, McVeigh 2014, Wong-Brown 2015), and was absent from large population stud ies. In addition, this variant was classified as Pathogenic by the ClinGen-appr oved ENIGMA expert panel (ClinVar SCV000282457.1). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein?s amino acid sequence beginning at position 2766 and leads to a premature termination codon 11 amino acids downstre am. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of BRCA2 function is an established disease mechanism in here ditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (HBOC). In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic for HBOC in an autosomal dominant m anner based on its occurrence in affected individuals and its predicted impact t o the protein. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2, PS4_Moderate, PP5 (Richards 2015).

This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 38149). It is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting a single nucleotide, 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: Edwards SM et al. Prostate cancer in BRCA2 germline mutation carriers is associated with poorer prognosis.

This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. This variant has been reviewed by an expert panel and is interpreted as pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/38149/). Frameshift variants in BRCA2 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
