Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_005732.4(RAD50):c.1722dupA(p.Gln575ThrfsTer3) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000186 in 1,611,414 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. Q575Q) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:3
Lines of evidence used in support of classification: Alterations resulting in premature truncation (e.g.reading frame shift, nonsense)
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln575Thrfs*3) in the RAD50 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in RAD50 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19409520). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary cancer (PMID: 16385572, 19409520, 24763289). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142556). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
The c.1722dupA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 11 of the RAD50 gene, results from a duplication of A at nucleotide position 1722, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.Q575Tfs*3). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
Nijmegen breakage syndrome-like disorder Pathogenic:2
not provided Pathogenic:1
This frameshift variant alters the translational reading frame of the RAD50 mRNA and causes the premature termination of RAD50 protein synthesis. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251222 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is consistent with pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in an individual undergoing hereditary cancer predisposition testing (PMID: 24763289 (2014)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: RAD50 c.1722dupA (p.Gln575ThrfsX3) 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 251222 control chromosomes. c.1722dupA has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast cancer (e.g. Bucalo_2023). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 37262986). Four submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
