Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000214098 SCV000076505 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2023-10-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1408*) 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 (rs80356989, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 9333265, 9760198, 20104584, 22009639). This variant is also known as c.4341C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 55145). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000131888 SCV000186943 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-02-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Q1408* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.4222C>T), located in coding exon 11 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4222. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 11. This mutation was first reported in 1/798 individuals from a multi-center study of persons thought to be at elevated a priori risk for a BRCA1 mutation based on personal and/or family history (Shattuck-Eidens D et al. JAMA. 1997 Oct;278:1242-50). It was also detected in 3/989 unrelated individuals from a cohort of German breast and/or ovarian cancer families. These 3 individuals came from particularly high-risk families with two or more cases of breast cancer, including at least two cases with an age of onset under 50 years (Meindl A et al. Int. J. Cancer. 2002 Feb;97:472-80). The p.Q1408* pathogenic variant has also been reported in several Chinese patients with breast and/or ovarian cancer (Bhaskaran SP et al. Int. J. Cancer. 2019 08;145:962-973). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 4341C>T in some 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.

Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000214098 SCV000271318 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2015-03-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Gln1408X variant in BRCA1 has been previously reported in 2 women with bre ast and/or ovarian cancer and was found to segregate with disease in 6 affected members of 1 family with BRCA1-associated cancer, including 2 obligate carriers (Shattuck-Eidens 1997, Dong 1998). It has not been identified in large populatio n studies. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at posit ion 1408, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozyg ous loss of BRCA1 function is an established disease mechanism in hereditary bre ast and ovarian cancer (HBOC). In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic for HBOC in an autosomal dominant manner based upon th e predicted impact to the protein, absence from controls, and segregation studie s.

This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been identified in 1/251400 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 RCV000214098 SCV000699123 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2023-07-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: BRCA1 c.4222C>T (p.Gln1408X) 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251400 control chromosomes. c.4222C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. 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. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16267036, 18824701, 11802209, 22009639, 19941162, 9333265, 21465171, 9760198, 27433846). 12 submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
