Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000203641 SCV000075674 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-10-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr655Valfs*18) in the BRCA1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). This variant is present in population databases (rs80357853, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast, ovarian, and prostate cancer (PMID: 7837387, 21324516, 21559243, 22516946, 22970155). This variant is also known as 2080insA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54417). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000130225 SCV000185065 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2024-02-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.1961dupA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a duplication of A at nucleotide position 1961, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.Y655Vfs*18). This mutation has been reported in numerous breast, ovarian, or prostate cancer patients (Shattuck-Eidens D et al. JAMA 1995 Feb;273:535-41; Couch FJ et al. Hum. Mutat. 1996;8:8-18; Zhang S et al. Gynecol. Oncol. 2011 May;121:353-7; Leongamornlert D et al. Br. J. Cancer 2012 May;106:1697-701; Couch FJ et al. J Clin Oncol. 2015 Feb 1;33(4):304-11). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 2080insA and c.1945dupA in published literature. 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.

Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000047661 SCV000296401 pathogenic not provided 2023-01-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This frameshift variant alters the translational reading frame of the BRCA1 mRNA and causes the premature termination of BRCA1 protein synthesis. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000098 (3/30596 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is consistent with pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals/families with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 28724667 (2017), 25452441 (2015), 24728189 (2014), 22970155 (2012), 21324516 (2011), 18340530 (2009), 17688236 (2007), 12181777 (2002), 7837387 (1995)), prostate cancer (PMID: 23569316 (2013), 22516946 (2012)), or renal cell carcinoma (RCC) (PMID: 21751003 (2011)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

This variant is also known as 2080insA and c.1961insA in the literature. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been observed in multiple individuals and families affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 7837387, 12181777, 17688236, 18340530, 21324516, 22970155, 24728189, 31161121). This variant also has been reported in individuals affected with prostate and renal cell carcinoma (PMID: 21751003, 22516946). This variant has been identified in 3/250730 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA1 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 RCV000203641 SCV000698902 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2023-02-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA1 c.1961dupA (p.Tyr655ValfsX18) 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 250730 control chromosomes. c.1961dupA has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome or Prostate Cancer (e.g. Shaltuck-Eidens_1995, Ramus_2007, Song_2014, Zhang_2011, Liede_2002, Leongamornlert_2012, Rebbeck_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. 12 submitters, including an expert panel (ENIGMA), have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and all classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
