Ambry Genetics RCV000491808 SCV000580504 benign Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-04-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This alteration is classified as 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 RCV000491808 SCV000685122 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-05-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces glutamine with arginine at codon 239 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 colorectal cancer showing microsatellite stability and positive immunohistochemistry results (PMID: 29212164) and an individual referred for hereditary cancer screening (PMID: 31159747). This variant has been identified in 3/251394 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.

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000411135 SCV001299505 uncertain significance Lynch syndrome 1 2018-01-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000160626 SCV001437298 uncertain significance not specified 2020-09-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: MSH2 c.716A>G (p.Gln239Arg) results in a 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 1.2e-05 in 251394 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.716A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals with suspected Lynch Syndrome (e.g. Raskin_2017, Tsaousis_2019). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Nine clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

RCV000411135 SCV004018295 uncertain significance Lynch syndrome 1 2023-03-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance as there is insufficient evidence to determine its impact on protein function and/or cancer risk.
