Invitae RCV000049204 SCV000077217 pathogenic Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome 2023-10-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp321*) 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 (rs80357292, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 9333265, 10644434, 15382066, 16287141, 16683254, 22535016). This variant is also known as 1081G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37712). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV000162891 SCV000213378 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-11-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.W321* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.962G>A), located in coding exon 9 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 962. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 9. This mutation has been reported in multiple families affected with breast cancer (Shattuck-Eidens D et al. JAMA.1997;278(15):1242-50; Oros KK et al. Int J Cancer. 2004;112(3):411-9; Hoyer J et al. BMC Cancer 2018 Sep;18:926). This alteration has also been described as a French-Canadian founder mutation (Janaviius R. EPMA J 2010 Sep;1(3):397-412), and in a large, worldwide study of BRCA1/2 mutation positive families (Rebbeck TR et al. Hum. Mutat. 2018 05;39:593-620). Of note, this alteration is also designated 1081G>A 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.

It has been reported in multiple individuals with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer in the published literature (PMIDs: 30257646 (2018), 29446198 (2018), 23772696 (2014), 22535016 (2012), 23199084 (2010), 16905680 (2007), 16683254 (2006), 16287141 (2005), 15728167 (2005), 15382066 (2004), and 9333265 (1997)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been observed in individuals and families affected with breast, ovarian and peritoneal cancers (PMID: 9333265, 10644434, 15382066, 16287141, 16683254, 22006311, 22535016, 30257646) and it is described as a recurrent founder mutation in the French-Canadian population (PMID: 23199084). This variant has been identified in 1/251402 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.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV000159948 SCV001554359 pathogenic not provided no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The BRCA1 p.Trp321X variant was identified in 4 of 4476 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0009) from individuals or families with breast and ovarian cancer (Shattuck-Eidens 1997, Claus 2005, Belanger 2015, Simard 2007). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs80357292) “With Pathogenic allele”, ClinVar (as pathogenic by ENIGMA, CIMBA, Invitae, GeneDx, Ambry Genetics, CHEO, Quest Diagnostics, GeneKor, SCARP, BIC), LOVD 3.0 (4x, functional affect is reported and concluded.), UMD-LSDB (10 records, as class 5, causal), BIC Database (23x reported), and ARUP Laboratories (as class 5 and-Definitely pathogenic). The variant was not identified in Genesight-COGR, Cosmic, MutDB, and Zhejiang Colon Cancer databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 1 of 246166 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000004 in European population (Genome Aggregation Consortium Feb 27, 2017). The p.Trp321X variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 321, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function.Loss of function variants of the BRCA1 gene are an established mechanism of disease in breast and ovarian cancer and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic.
