The variant received 19 classification points (ACGS-UK Somatic Oncogenicity v2025). O1_Very_StrongO2_Very_StrongO3_SupportingO4_Moderate

The NM_000059.4(BRCA2):c.1813dupA (p.Ile605AsnfsTer11) variant causes a frameshift change. The variant is predicted to lead to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). The gene BRCA2 is a tumor suppressor gene (CancerMine: 139 TSG, 7 oncogene, 19 driver citations). The gene BRCA2 is a cancer driver gene (CancerMine: 139 TSG, 7 oncogene, 19 driver citations). The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.0000137 (AC=22) in the gnomAD database across 1,601,314 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.0000197. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic (★★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000918819: Functional study showed variant with diminished DNA double strand break repair capacity (Becker_2012)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. The variant has been observed in cBioPortal in 35 samples across 12 studies and 8 cancer types; somatic enrichment level: MODERATE (Observed in many cases across multiple studies/cancer contexts.).

Genes affected

BRCA2 (HGNC:1101): (BRCA2 DNA repair associated) The product of this gene in involved in maintenance of genome stability. It is involved in double-strand break repair pathways during mitotic and meiotic homologous recombination and functions in protecting DNA replication forks. The encoded protein contains sites for interactions with PALB2 and EMSY and an N-terminal DNA binding domain. It also contains a RAD51 binding domain with multiple components. It has multiple BRC repeats, an alpha helix domain, oligonucleotide binding folds, and a tower-like domain. It has a nuclear localization signal and a phosphorylation site for cyclin-dependent kinase. The C-terminus of the protein can bind single-stranded and double-stranded DNA. The product of this gene interacts with multiple proteins, including RAD51. It is involved in recruiting RAD51 filaments to DNA double-strand break sites and also in cytoplasmic division. It also acts as a tumor suppressor. Mutations in this gene or decreased expression have been implicated in multiple tumor types, including breast, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate and other cancers.

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 19 points.

Apply	Criterion Code & Title / Strength	Strength	Rationale / Clinical Context
	O1Established oncogenic variant		ClinVar oncogenic/SCI T1 (expert panel/practice guideline, ★★★+) — Very Strong (O1); ClinVar oncogenic/SCI T1 (multiple submitters, ★★) — Strong (O1); ClinVar oncogenic/SCI T1 (single/no review, ★0–1) — Moderate (O1); TSG gene: ClinVar germline P/LP ★★+ — Moderate (O1); O1 contributing sources (8.0 pts): ClinVar (somatic oncogenic/LO (★★★)), ClinVar germline P/LP in TSG (★★★)
	O2Null variant in tumour suppressor gene		Frameshift/stop-gained, NMD predicted, LoF oncogenic mechanism — O2 very strong (+8); Use caution in the presence of multiple transcripts; Gene confirmed as TSG in CancerMine (TSG: 139 citations, oncogene: 7 citations, driver: 19 citations).; Frameshift/stop-gained. NMD predicted: true. LoF mechanism: true. Downstream pathogenic count: 4632.
	O3Absent or very rare in population		Very rare in gnomAD (popmax AF <0.01%) — O3 supporting; GnomAD effective popmax AF = 0.000020 — very rare (O3 supporting [+1])
