Ambry Genetics RCV000131891 SCV000186946 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2020-05-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.4120_4121delAG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 4120 to 4121, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S1374*). This pathogenic mutation has been reported in numerous individuals diagnosed with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Montagna M et al. Cancer Res. 1996 Dec 1;56(23):5466-9; Walsh T et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 2011 Nov 1;108(44):18032-7; Mannan AU et al J. of Hum. Genetics 2016; 61:515–522; Rebbeck TR et al. Hum. Mutat., 2018 05;39:593-620; Momozawa Y et al. Nat Commun, 2018 10;9:4083; Bhaskaran SP et al. Int. J. Cancer, 2019 08;145:962-973). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 4239delAG 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 RCV000131891 SCV000688467 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-01-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant deletes 2 nucleotides in exon 11 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. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals and families affected with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 8968102, 11595708, 22006311, 28111427, 29446198, 30287823, 30702160; Color internal data) and this variant is reported to cosegregate with cancer in one hereditary breast and ovarian cancer family (PMID: 8968102). 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 (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000496761 SCV000918799 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2021-01-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA1 c.4120_4121delAG (p.Ser1374X) 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 249128 control chromosomes. c.4120_4121delAG has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (example, 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. Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories and one expert panel (ENIGMA) have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000657802 SCV001133577 pathogenic not provided 2022-09-15 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. This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals/families with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 8968102 (1996), 22006311 (2011), 28111427 (2017), 30287823 (2018)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000496761 SCV001394184 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2024-01-05 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser1374*) 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/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 8968102, 22006311). This variant is also known as 4239delAG. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37570). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
