ClinGen TP53 Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen RCV000168242 SCV001142555 pathogenic Li-Fraumeni syndrome 2024-08-05 reviewed by expert panel curation The NM_000546.6: c.742C>T variant in TP53 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of arginine by tryptophan at amino acid 248 (p.Arg248Trp). This variant has been identified as a de novo occurrence with confirmed parental relationships in one individual with an LFS-associated cancer totaling four phenotype points (PS2; PMID: 10089074). This variant has been reported in >10 unrelated probands meeting Classic and Revised Chompret criteria. Based on this evidence, this variant scores 13.5 total points meeting the TP53 VCEP phenotype scoring criteria of ≥ 8 points. (PS4_Very Strong; PMIDs: 8527048, 9242456, 20522432, 8425176, 32658383, 9825943, 1978757. Internal lab contributors: SCV000212766.7, SCV000218912.13). The variant has been reported to segregate with LFS-associated cancers in ≥ 7 meioses in six families (PP1_Strong; PMID: 8527048, 9825943, 8527048, 1978757, 9825943, 9242456). At least two individuals with this variant were found to have a variant allele fraction of 5-25%, which is a significant predictor of variant pathogenicity (PP4_Moderate, PMID: 34906512, Internal lab contributors: SCV000212766.7). This variant has an allele frequency of 0.000005933 (7/1179814 alleles) in the European (non-Finnish) population in gnomAD v4.1.0 which is lower than the Clingen TP53 VCEP threshold (<0.00004) for PM2_Supporting, and therefore meets this criterion (PM2_Supporting). In vitro assays performed in yeast and/or human cell lines showed non-functional transactivation and loss of growth suppression activity indicating that this variant impacts protein function (PMIDs: 12826609, 30224644, 29979965) (PS3). This variant resides within a codon (NM_00546.4: 175, 245, 248, 249, 273, 282) of TP53 that is defined as a mutational hotspot by the ClinGen TP53 VCEP (PMID: 8023157 ) (PM1). Another missense variant c.743G>A; p.Arg248Gln (ClinVar Variation ID 12356), in the same codon have been classified as pathogenic for Li-Fraumeni syndrome by the ClinGen TP53 VCEP’s specifications. (PM5). Computational predictor scores (BayesDel = 0.5336; Align GVGD = Class C65) are above recommended thresholds (BayesDel > 0.16 and an Align GVGD Class of 65), evidence that correlates with impact to TP53 via protein change (PP3_Moderate). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Pathogenic for Li Fraumeni Syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen TP53 VCEP: PS2, PS4_Very Strong, PP1_Strong, PP4_Moderate, PM2_Supporting, PS3, PM1, PM5, PP3_Moderate. (Bayesian Points: 29; VCEP specifications version 2.0; 7/24/2024)

Ambry Genetics RCV000115735 SCV000212766 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-05-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R248W pathogenic mutation (also known as c.742C>T), located in coding exon 6 of the TP53 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 742. The arginine at codon 248 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This mutation has been reported in many individuals and families from various ethnicities affected with Li-Fraumeni syndrome-associated cancers (Malkin D et al. Science. 1990 Nov 30;250(4985):1233-8; Bang YJ et al. J. Korean Med. Sci. 1995 Jun;10:205-10; Alsner J et al. Clin Cancer Res. 2000 Oct;6(10):3923-31; Andrade RC et al. Pediatr Blood Cancer. 2013 Sep 13; Rieber J et al. Genes Chromosomes Cancer. 2009 Jul; 48(7):558-68; Arcand SL et al. BMC Med. Genet. 2015 Apr;16:24; Sun J et al. Clin. Cancer Res. 2017 Oct;23:6113-6119). This mutation was also reported in an individual diagnosed with bilateral breast cancer at ages 29 and 34; in vitro studies showed significantly reduced induction levels of TP53 target genes in LFS lymphocytes that had been exposed to DNA damage resulting in greatly reduced cellular response to DNA damage (Zerdoumi Y et al. Hum Mutat. 2013 Mar;34(3):453-61). This variant is in the DNA binding domain of the TP53 protein and is reported to have non-functional transactivation in yeast based assays (Kato S et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. 2003 Jul;100:8424-9). Studies conducted in human cell lines indicate this alteration is deficient at growth suppression and has a dominant negative effect (Kotler E et al. Mol.Cell. 2018 Jul;71:178-190.e8; Giacomelli AO et al. Nat. Genet. 2018 Oct;50:1381-1387). In another study, a functional protein microarray indicated that TP53 polypeptide with p.R248W alteration exhibited less than 40% DNA binding activity compared to wild type protein (Malcikova J et al. Biol Chem. 2010 Feb-Mar;391(2-3):197-205). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000168242 SCV000218912 pathogenic Li-Fraumeni syndrome 2024-01-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 248 of the TP53 protein (p.Arg248Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs121912651, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Li-Fraumeni syndrome and breast cancer (PMID: 1978757, 23172776, 23950206, 24573247). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 12347). Advanced modeling performed at Invitae incorporating data from internal and/or published experimental studies (PMID: 12826609, 29979965, 30224644) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt TP53 function with a positive predictive value of 97.5%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TP53 function (PMID: 12826609, 17606709, 20128691, 21343334, 23172776, 29979965, 30224644). This variant disrupts the p.Arg248 amino acid residue in TP53. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17606709, 20128691). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000115735 SCV002053464 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-12-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces arginine with tryptophan at codon 248 of the TP53 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 occurs at an established tumor hotspot in the TP53 protein (PMID: 20182602, 26619011). Functional studies have shown that this variant is defective for DNA binding and transcriptional transactivation of TP53 target genes, displays loss of function and dominant negative activity in human cell growth suppression assays and is non-functional in human cell proliferation assays (PMID: 12826609, 17417627, 20013323, 21343334, 23172776, 28369373, 29979965, 30224644). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Li Fraumeni syndrome cancers (PMID: 1978757, 1631137, 8425176, 9598730, 17606709, 17427234, 20522432, 23172776, 23667202, 23950206, 27374712, 28369373). It has been shown that this variant segregates with disease in Li Fraumeni families (PMID: 1978757, 8527048, 9242456, 9825943) and has been observed to occur de novo (PMID: 10089074, 29025599). This variant has been identified in 1/251476 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.

Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251490 control chromosomes. c.742C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Li-Fraumeni Syndrome or other types of cancer. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least two publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function and showed that this variant results in abrogation of Tp53 tumor suppressor activity (Fregourg_1992, Zerdoumi_2012). Twelve 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.

Wasik Lab, Fox Chase Cancer Center RCV003318332 SCV004020303 pathogenic Malignant lymphoma, large B-cell, diffuse 2023-07-25 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing This variant was observed in a patient with DLBCL that presented in leukemic form, best classified as MCD/C5 DLBCL, an ABC subtype. Despite an initial good clinical response to BTK inhibitor ibrutinib, anti-CD20 antibody rituxan, alkylating agent bendamustine, and hematopoietic stem-cell transplant, the lymphoma relapsed, accompanied by morphologic and molecular evidence of disease progression. TP53 tumor suppressor dysregulation is associated with partial or no response to CHOP-based chemotherapy (Young et al. 2007; Xu-Monette et al. 2012). TP53 mutations frequently involve the DNA binding domain, exons 5-8, impairing TP53 mediated transcriptional transactivation (Miao et al. 2019). TP53 R248W was detected in this tumor at presentation and recurrence, and is predicted to cause structural defects in the region responsible for DNA binding. Genomic DNA copy number assays indicated the normal TP53 allele was lost at relapse. TP53 mutation is uncommon in the MYD88 cluster of DLBCL but when present, it confers an extremely poor prognosis (Lacy et al. 2020).
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV004745154 SCV005345291 pathogenic TP53-related disorder 2024-08-09 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The TP53 c.742C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg248Trp. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with Li-Fraumeni syndrome and breast cancer and has been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals (Malkin et al. 1990. PubMed ID: 1978757; Zerdoumi et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23172776; Brugières et al. 1993. PubMed ID: 8425176; Varley et al. 1997. PubMed ID: 9242456). This variant is in a codon (p.Arg248) that is an established mutational hotspot (Olivier et al. 2010. PMID: 20182602) and functional studies demonstrate that this variant impacts protein function (Kato et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 12826609; Giacomelli et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30224644; Kotler et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29979965). An alternate nucleotide change affecting the same amino acid (p.Arg248Gln), has been reported in individuals with TP53-related conditions (Varley et al. 1997. PubMed ID: 9242456). This variant is reported in 0.00088% of alleles in individuals of European (non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/12347/). This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
