Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000048947 SCV000076960 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2025-01-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1779Asnfs*14) 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: 11920621, 21324516, 26187060). This variant is also known as 5454delC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37657). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000129334 SCV000184097 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2024-11-15 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.5335delC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 20 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 5335, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.Q1779Nfs*14). This mutation has been reported in multiple breast and ovarian cancer patients (De Leon Matsuda ML et al. Int. J. Cancer. 2002 Apr;98:596-603; Kuo WH et al. J. Hum. Genet. 2012 Feb;57:130-8; Ibrahim SS et al. J. Exp. Clin. Cancer Res. 2010 Jun;29:82; Yang XR et al. Breast Cancer Res.Treat. 2017 Oct;165:687-697; Kwong A et al. Hong Kong Med J. 2018 06;24 Suppl 3(3):4-6). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 5454delC 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.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000048947 SCV000699245 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2016-06-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The BRCA1 c.5335delC (p.Gln1779Asnfs) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BRCA1 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 (e.g. c.5387C>A, p.Ser1796X; c.5417delC, p.Pro1806fs). One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant and this variant is absent in 121004 control chromosomes. The variant has been reported in numerous patients in the literature and databases, and has been reported as a Filipino founder mutation. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000159930 SCV000887723 pathogenic not provided 2023-06-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant alters the translational reading frame of the BRCA1 mRNA and causes the premature termination of BRCA1 protein synthesis. In the published literature, this variant has been reported in multiple individuals with breast or ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 32856862 (2020), 29937436 (2018), 28664506 (2017), 22277901 (2012), 20579331 (2012), 21324516 (2011), 11920621 (2002)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251422 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV001353970 SCV000591617 pathogenic Malignant tumor of breast no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The p.Gln1779AsnfsX14 variant has been reported in the literature in at least 3/1352 proband chromosomes from individuals with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer; although no control chromosomes were tested in these particular studies to establish its frequency in the general population (Selected publications: Kuo 2012; Matsuda 2002; Ferla 2007). Of particular interest is the finding that this variant is reported as a founder mutation in Malay and Philippine breast cancer patients (Ferla 2007), and that the ethnic background of this individual is Filipino. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 1779 and leads to a premature stop codon 14 codons downstream. This alteration is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function of the BRCA1 gene is an established disease mechanism in hereditary breast cancer patients. In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
KCCC/NGS Laboratory, Kuwait Cancer Control Center RCV000031238 SCV003927199 pathogenic Breast-ovarian cancer, familial, susceptibility to, 1 2023-05-05 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing A pathogenic variant was detected in this sample .This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1800fs) 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). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the ExAC database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 11920621, 21324516, 26187060). This variant is also known as 5398delC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37657). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant was confirmed by Sanger Sequencing. Genetics counseling is recommended
