Invitae RCV000045646 SCV000073659 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2023-11-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln2960*) 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 and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 10449599, 14531499, 16764716, 18821011, 24312913, 25863477, 26852130). This variant is also known as 9106C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52694). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV000162940 SCV000213427 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-08-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Q2960* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.8878C>T), located in coding exon 21 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 8878. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 21. This mutation has been identified in multiple families with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (Santarosa M et al. Int. J. Cancer. 1999 Sep;83:5-9; Miolo G et al. BMC Cancer. 2006 Jun;6:156; Manoukian S et al. Eur. J. Cancer 2007 Feb;43:601-6; Papi L et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2009 Oct;117:497-504; Alemar B et al. Cancer Genet. 2016 Sep;209:417-422). 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 been reported in hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer in the published literature (PMIDs: 27425403 (2016), 26852130 (2016), 25863477 (2015), 24312913 (2013), 23165508 (2013), 18821011 (2009), 17224268 (2007), 16982466 (2006), 16764716 (2006), 14531499 (2003), 10449599 (1999), 28091860 (2017), 29161300 (2017), 29339979 (2018), 29446198 (2018), 30606148 (2019), and 30702160 (2019)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations. Therefore, the variant is classified as pathogenic.

This variant is also known as 9106C>T in the literature. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in more than 10 individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 16982466, 17224268, 23165508, 28091860, 30606148, 32438681, 33471991, 35281878) and has been identified in 38 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 RCV000045646 SCV000695185 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2017-05-05 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The BRCA2 c.8878C>T (p.Gln2960X) 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.8902_8913delinsTCCC, p.Thr2968fsX47; c.8904delC, p.Val2969fsX7; c.8930delA, p.Tyr2977fsX11; c.8961_8964delGAGT, p.Ser2988fsX12). One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant is absent in 120540 control chromosomes. This variant was reported in multiple individuals affected with HBOC with clear segregation with the disease (Aretini, 2003; Santarosa, 1999; Miolo, 2006) The vaiant is suspected to be a founder mutation in Italian population (Miolo, 2006). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
