Ambry Genetics RCV000131508 SCV000186500 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-12-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.226delA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 4 of the PALB2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 226, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.I76Yfs*101). This alteration was detected in 3/5054 African American women with breast cancer and 0/4993 unaffected controls (Palmer JR et al. J Natl Cancer Inst, 2020 12;112:1213-1221). This alteration was identified in 1/692 men with metastatic prostate cancer who were unselected for family history of cancer or age at diagnosis (Pritchard CC et al. N Engl J Med, 2016 Aug;375:443-53). This alteration was also identified in 1/10030 consecutive patients referred for evaluation by an NGS hereditary cancer panel (Susswein LR et al. Genet Med, 2016 08;18:823-32). 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.

Invitae RCV000411345 SCV000633340 pathogenic Familial cancer of breast 2023-12-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ile76Tyrfs*101) in the PALB2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PALB2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17200668, 17200671, 17200672, 24136930, 25099575). This variant is present in population databases (rs587782443, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with prostate cancer (PMID: 26681312, 27433846). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142408). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000131508 SCV000685937 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-12-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant deletes 1 nucleotide in exon 4 of the PALB2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in one individual each affected with prostate cancer and referred for cancer panel testing without a personal history of cancer (PMID: 26681312, 27433846). This variant has been identified in 1/244238 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of PALB2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.

Human Genome Sequencing Center Clinical Lab, Baylor College of Medicine RCV001258080 SCV001434919 pathogenic Pancreatic cancer, susceptibility to, 3; Breast cancer, susceptibility to 2018-10-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This c.226delA (p.Ile76Tyrfs*101) frameshift variant in the PALB2 gene is predicted to introduce a premature translation termination codon. This variant has been reported in two unrelated cancer patients (PMID 26681312, 27433846). It is absent in general population databases. Mono-allelic loss of function variants in the PALB2 gene has been associated with susceptibility to breast cancer and pancreatic cancer (PMID: 17200668, 24136930, 25099575). Therefore this c.226delA (p.Ile76Tyrfs*101) variant is classified as pathogenic.
