Ambry Genetics	RCV000217044	SCV000275551	likely benign	Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome	2022-07-18	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	RCV000217044	SCV000685090	uncertain significance	Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome	2023-09-29	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This missense variant replaces leucine with phenylalanine at codon 135 of the MSH2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). This variant does not impact MSH2 function in a 6-thioguanine sensitivity assay in haploid human cells (internally defined LOF score threshold <= -1.32, PMID: 33357406). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 25186627). This variant has been identified in 5/251312 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	RCV001175574	SCV001339207	uncertain significance	not specified	2023-10-31	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Variant summary: MSH2 c.403C>T (p.Leu135Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251312 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.403C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals with suspected cancer or family history of cancer (examples: Mu_2016, Tung_2015, Quy_2022). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 27720647, 35428255, 25186627). Seven submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classifed the variant as uncertain significance (n=5) and benign/likely benign (n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

Myriad Genetics, Inc.	RCV000411543	SCV004018348	likely benign	Lynch syndrome 1	2023-11-06	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This variant is considered likely benign. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 27363726].

Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano	RCV000115530	SCV004221003	uncertain significance	not provided	2022-11-11	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00018 (3/16256 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in an individual with breast cancer (PMID:25186627 (2015)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is deleterious or benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences	RCV004734651	SCV005357212	uncertain significance	MSH2-related disorder	2024-06-02	no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	The MSH2 c.403C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Leu135Phe. This variant has been reported in an individual with breast cancer (Supporting Data, Tung et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25186627). This variant is reported in 0.018% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations of benign, likely benign, and uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/127646/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
