Invitae RCV000047722 SCV000075735 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2023-08-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Phe709Tyrfs*3) 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 not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 10200350, 16905680, 24549055, 25884701, 27083178). This variant is also known as 2244insA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54469). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV001014537 SCV001175255 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-06-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.2125_2126insA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from an insertion of one nucleotide at position 2125, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.F709Yfs*3). This alteration has been reported in numerous individuals with personal and/or family history consistent with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (Laplace-Marieze V et al. Int. J. Oncol., 1999 May;14:971-7; Simard J et al. J. Med. Genet., 2007 Feb;44:107-21; Lecarpentier J et al. Breast Cancer Res., 2012 Jul;14:R99; Castéra L et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet., 2014 Nov;22:1305-13; Belanger MH et al. J Ovarian Res, 2015 Mar;8:1; González-Rivera M et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat., 2016 04;156:507-515; Jouali F et al. Oncol Lett, 2016 Aug;12:1192-1196; Rebbeck TR et al. Hum. Mutat., 2018 05;39:593-620). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 2244insA, c.2126insA, and c.2126_2127insA 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.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV001014537 SCV001352954 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2019-09-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 10 of the BRCA1 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. This variant has been reported with individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 16905680, 24549055, 25884701, 27083178, 20694749, 28478614). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA1 function is a known mechanism of disease. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000047722 SCV001363875 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2020-09-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA1 c.2125_2126insA (p.Phe709TyrfsX3) 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 was absent in 251170 control chromosomes. c.2125_2126insA has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (Laplcae-Marieze_1999, Simard_2007, 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. Seven 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.

Found in at least one patient with expected phenotype for this gene, and not found in general population data.

KCCC/NGS Laboratory, Kuwait Cancer Control Center RCV000083179 SCV003927166 pathogenic Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 1 2023-05-05 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing A known pathogenic mutation was detected in the BRCA1 gene (c.2125_2126insA). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Phe709Tyrfs*3) in the BRCA1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases ( gnomAD). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 10200350, 16905680, 24549055, 25884701, 27083178). This variant is also known as 2244insA in the literature. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54469). Loss-of-function variants in BRCA1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). Therefore, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant was confirmed by Sanger Sequencing . Pathogenic mutations in the BRCA1 gene cause Hereditary Breast/Ovarian Cancer syndrome (HBOC). Carriers of a deleterious BRCA1 gene mutation are at: 50%-80% risk of developing breast cancer [general population at 12%]. 21.1% within 10 yrs and 83% by age 70 risk of developing second primary breast [general population at 2% within 5 years]. 24-%-40% risk of developing ovarian cancer [general population at 1-2%]. 1%-2% risk of developing male breast cancer [general population at 0.1%]. Up to 30% risk developing prostate cancer [general population at 15-18%]. 1%-3% risk developing pancreatic cancer [general population at 0.5%]. The Breast Cancer Linkage Consortium reported statistically significantly increased relative risks for cancers of the uterine body and cervix (only in heterozygous women age <65 years), with relative risks of 2.6, and 3.7 respectively [Thompson & Easton 2002]. Germline pathogenic variants in BRCA1 are inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. The majority of individuals with a BRCA1 pathogenic variant have inherited it from a parent. However, because of incomplete penetrance, variable age of cancer development, cancer risk reduction resulting from prophylactic surgery, or early death, not all individuals with a BRCA1 pathogenic variant have a parent affected with cancer.
