GeneDx RCV000212842 SCV000149604 pathogenic not provided 2023-07-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Observed in the heterozygous state in individuals with a personal or family history consistent with pathogenic variants in this gene (Senter 2008, Vaughn 2013, Rosty 2016); Truncating variants in this gene are considered pathogenic by a well-established clinical consortium and/or database; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 17993636, 19495563, 26720728, 29922827, 31447099, 25525159, 7661930, 15845562, 16284300, 26318770, 26270727, 7632227, 18602922, 23012243, 9488480, 16283678, 21376568, 25850602, 12714694, 26895986, 28152038, 18709565, 15077197, 30322717, 32719484, 30787465, 33087929, 35449176, 36988593)
Invitae RCV000524474 SCV000166386 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2024-01-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg134*) in the PMS2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PMS2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21376568, 24362816). This variant is present in population databases (rs63750871, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with constitutional mismatch repair deficiency, colorectal cancer, Lynch syndrome, and ovarian cancer (PMID: 15077197, 18602922, 23012243, 25850602, 26318770, 26681312, 26895986). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 9234). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on PMS2 function (PMID: 7632227, 9488480, 12714694). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000115695 SCV000187198 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-04-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R134* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.400C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the PMS2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 400. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 5. This alteration has been identified in multiple individuals with Constitutional Mismatch Repair Deficiency (CMMRD) syndrome caused by biallelic PMS2 mutations (Hamilton SR et al. N. Engl. J. Med. 1995 Mar;332:839-47; De Vos M et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2004 May;74:954-64; Lavoine N et al. J. Med. Genet. 2015 Nov;52:770-8). This mutation has also been identified in multiple patients with Lynch syndrome-associated tumors that showed isolated loss of PMS2 protein expression on IHC (Senter L et al. Gastroenterology. 2008 Aug;135:419-28; Rosty C et al. BMJ Open. 2016 Feb;6:e010293). This alteration has also been detected in 1/1915 women with ovarian cancer, unselected for family history (Norquist BM et al. JAMA Oncol. 2016 Apr;2:482-90). 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.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000115695 SCV000686201 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-04-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 5 of the PMS2 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome-associated cancers (PMID: 18602922, 26720728, 26895986), and in an individual suspected of hereditary breast/ovarian cancer (PMID: 26270727). This variant has also been reported in individuals affected with constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (PMID: 7661930, 15077197, 15845562, 21376568, 26318770). This variant has been identified in 2/276892 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of PMS2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000076872 SCV000713220 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2021-10-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Arg134X variant in PMS2 has been reported in at least 6 families (7 individuals) with PMS2-associated cancers (Parsons 1995 PMID: 7632227, Norquist 2016 PMID: 26720728, Rosty 2016 PMID: 26895986, LaDuca 2017 PMID: 28152038, Carter 2018 PMID: 30322717) and in the compound heterozygous state in 2 families (3 individuals) with constitutional mismatch repair disease (CMMRD; De Vos 2004 PMID: 15077197, Lavoine 2015 PMID: 26318770). It has also been identified in 1/128850 of European and 1/35440 of Latino chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 134, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the PMS2 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. In vitro functional studies support an impact on protein function (Parsons 1995 PMID: 7632227, Nicolaides 1998 PMID: 9488480, Gibson 2006 PMID: 16426742). In addition, this variant was classified as pathogenic on September 5, 2013 by the ClinGen-approved InSiGHT expert panel (SCV000108365.2). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2_Supporting, PS4_Moderate, PS3_Moderate.

The c.400C>T (p.R134*) variant in the PMS2 gene is classified as pathogenic.
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000212842 SCV000889627 pathogenic not provided 2023-01-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This nonsense variant causes the premature termination of PMS2 protein synthesis. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0000071 (2/282538 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is consistent with pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with colorectal cancer (PMIDs: 26895986 (2016), 18602922 (2008)), Turcot syndrome (PMIDs: 15077197 (2004), 7661930 (1995)), ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 30322717 (2018), 26720728 (2016), 26681312 (2015)), and breast cancer (PMID: 35449176 (2022)). It has also been identified in individuals with CMMRD (PMIDs: 26318770 (2015), 25850602 (2015), 15077197 (2004)). Functional studies indicate this variant causes impaired DNA mismatch repair activity (PMIDs: 9488480 (1998), 7632227 (1995)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000076872 SCV000918060 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2018-07-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: PMS2 c.400C>T (p.Arg134X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the 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 (eg. c.697C>T, p.Gln233X; c.736_741delinsTGTGTGTGAAG, p.Pro246fsX3). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.2e-06 in 121392 control chromosomes. c.400C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Turcot syndrome who carry a second pathogenic variant (DeVos_2004) and in patients with Lynch Syndrome and colorectal cancer (Senter_2008, Durno_2005). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Additionally, this variant was found to have a dominant negative effect in hamster fibroblast cells (Nicolaides_1998) but not in human fibroblast cells (Yamada_2003). However, the variant was found to abrogate the interaction with MLH1 (Nicolaides_1998), a known pathogenic mechanism. Six 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 pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
