Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano | Dec 20, 2023 | The BRCA2 c.8009C>T (p.Ser2670Leu) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/BRCA2), 34413315 (2021), 31742824 (2020), 32318955 (2020), 31843900 (2019), 30254663 (2018), 28724667 (2017)). In addition, it has been reported in trans with two different suspect BRCA2 variants in individuals with features of Fanconi Anemia (PMID: 25639900 (2015), 24735155 (2014)). Experimental studies indicate that this variant has a damaging effect on the expression and function of the BRCA2 protein in vitro (PMID: 31843900 (2019), 29394989 (2018), 28339459 (2017), 19043619 (2008)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000013 (2/151936 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. - |

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:3
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | curation | Cancer Variant Interpretation Group UK, Institute of Cancer Research, London | Oct 10, 2018 | Data used in classification: The frequency of this variant is 0/138,632 individuals (gnomAD) (PM2_mod). This variant is predicted deleterious on AlignGVGD (class: C65), SIFT (Deleterious), Polyphen2 HumVar (probably damaging) and CADD (28.4) (PP3_sup). The variant is in the DNA-binding domain of BRCA2 (PM1_sup). In the VarCall Bayesian statistical model for VUS classification using functional assay data (Guidugli et al Am J Hum Genet 2018; 102:233-248, Couch Lab), the variant has a probability of being deleterious of 0.99 and an overall classification of pathogenic. (PS3_strong). This variant has been classified on ClinVar as likely pathogenic by multiple accredited USA diagnostic laboratories (PP5_sup). Data not used in classification: There are additional reports of this variant in UMD (6), BIC (9), and BRCA2 LOVD (2). - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Jul 06, 2020 | Variant summary: BRCA2 c.8009C>T (p.Ser2670Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DSS1 interaction domain of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251148 control chromosomes. c.8009C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary/Familial Breast And Ovarian Cancer and at-least two individuals with Fanconi Anemia in whom a co-occurring BRCA2 variant in trans was identified (example, Lubinski_2004, Lara_2012, Chenevix-Trench_2006, Hondow_2011, Nakamura_2015, Jimnez_2012, Lynce_2015, Machakova_2019, Rosenthal_2015, Shao_2020, Susswein_2016, Zuntini_2018, Trejo Bittar_2014). These data indicate that the variant allele was transmitted much more often than the reference allele to affected individuals within families and is therefore likely to be associated with disease. The cases with other co-occurring pathogenic variants include, BRCA2 c.9699_9702delTATG, p.Cys3233_Met3234?fs (p.Cys3233fs) and BRCA2 c.767insA (variant not reported in other databases) respectively in two patients with Fanconi Anemia (Rosenthal_2015 and Trejo Bittar_2014); and BRCA1 c.212+3A>G (UMD database). At least three independent publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in loss of homology directed DNA repair (HDR) capability (Hart_2019, Guidugli_2018, Karchin_2008). Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of the variant allele was observed in at-least one of two tumors examined, while no LOH was observed in the second tumor (Chenevix-Trench_2006). To our knowledge, this finding has not been independently reproduced and the authors speculated that the loss of the wild-type allele is less common for some pathogenic missense variants that act as dominant-negative mutations. Therefore, this evidence is not weighted in favor of a neutral impact of this variant in-vivo. Two recent publications, one reporting the fifth Critical Assessment of Genome Interpretation (CAGI) and another reporting a multifactorial analysis based classification, both support a "likely pathogenic" outcome for this variant (Padilla_2019, Parsons_2019). Eight clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic (n=2)/likely pathogenic (n=6). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. - |
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Jan 29, 2024 | This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2670 of the BRCA2 protein (p.Ser2670Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with a personal or family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer or Fanconi anemia (PMID: 15131399, 22895246, 23096355, 24249303, 24735155, 26187060, 26250392, 28176296, 31409081, 31742824, 31843900, 34717758). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as 8237C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52471). Based on a multifactorial likelihood algorithm using genetic, in silico, and/or statistical data, this variant has been determined to have a high probability of being pathogenic (PMID: 31131967). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects BRCA2 function (PMID: 19043619, 29394989, 32444794). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. - |

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Apr 06, 2023 | The p.S2670L pathogenic mutation (also known as c.8009C>T), located in coding exon 17 of the BRCA2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 8009. The serine at codon 2670 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration has been reported in multiple individuals with clinical histories suggestive of HBOC (Lubinski J et al. Fam. Cancer. 2004;3(1):1-10; Jimenez AM et al. Clin. Adv. Hematol. Oncol. 2012 Jun;10:402-4; Lara K et al. Biol. Res. 2012;45(2):117-30; Lynce F et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2015 Aug;153:201-9; Pal T et al. Cancer. 2015 Dec;121:4173-80). This alteration has been identified with multiple pathogenic BRCA2 alterations in multiple families with Fanconi Anemia (Rosenthal ET et al. Clin. Genet. 2015 Dec;88(6):533-41; Trejo Bittar HE et al. Pediatr. Dev. Pathol. 2014 Apr;17:297-301). This variant was found to be functionally defective in a homology-directed repair assay (Karchin R et al. Cancer Inform. 2008 Apr;6:203-16; Guidugli L et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2018 Jan; Hart SN et al. Genet. Med., 2019 01;21:71-80). This alteration was shown to result in a minor amount of exon 17 skipping (Fraile-Bethencourt E et al. PLoS Genet. 2017 Mar;13(3):e1006691). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 8237C>T in published literature. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. However, because this variant is identified in one or more patients with Fanconi Anemia it may be hypomorphic and thus, carriers of this variant and their families may present with reduced risks, and not with the typical clinical characteristics of a high-risk pathogenic BRCA2 alteration. As risk estimates are unknown at this time, clinical correlation is advised. - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | Oct 17, 2022 | This missense variant replaces serine with leucine at codon 2670 of the BRCA2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies reported this variant results in the production of BRCA2 protein that is severely impaired in homology-directed repair assays (PMID: 19043619, 29394989). An RNA study found the variant resulted in splicing defects predicted to cause an absent or non-functional protein product (PMID: 31843900). This variant has been observed in multiple individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 22895246, 25639900, 26681312, 31843900), pancreatic cancer (PMID: 29395620) and ovarian cancer (PMID: 33850850). This variant also has been observed in multiple families affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 15131399, 24249303, 30254663) and it is reported to co-segregate with disease in two families with likelihood ratio of 17.8658 (PMID: 31131967). This variant is also seen in an individual with a pathogenic BRCA2 covariant affected with Fanconi anemia and has a family history of breast and other solid-tumor cancers (PMID: 24735155). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. - |

BRCA2-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences | Aug 07, 2024 | The BRCA2 c.8009C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser2670Leu. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (see for example, Jimenez et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22895246; Lynce et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26250392; Sun et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28724667) and has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in at least two patients with clinical features of Fanconi Anemia (Trejo Bittar et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24735155; Rosenthal et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25639900). Additionally, studies using a homology directed DNA repair activity assay showed this variant is functionally defective (Hart et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29884841; Guidugli et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 23108138). This variant has not been reported in a large population database such as gnomAD, indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic/likely pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/52471/?new_evidence=true). This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. - |
Malignant tumor of breast Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System | - | The BRCA2 p.Ser2670Leu variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 23096355, 26250392) and inflammatory breast cancer (PMID: 22895246), as well as in individuals with a personal and/or family history of breast/ovarian cancer (PMID: 15131399, 24249303, 26187060). This variant was also observed to co-occur with a pathogenic BRCA2 variant (c.538_539dupAT) in an individual with Fanconi anemia, however the phase of the variants was not confirmed (PMID: 24735155). The variant was identified in ClinVar (Conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity. Likely pathogenic: Ambry in 2017, GeneDx in 2017, Counsyl in 2017, Invitae in 2018, Color in 2018, Quest Diagnostics in 2019, Sharing Clinical Reports Project in 2010. VUS by Research Molecular Genetics Laboratory at Women's College Hospital in 2014. Pathogenic by Clinical molecular and personalized diagnostics in 2016. GeneInsight-COGR (Sinai Health System and COGR consensus) classify as VUS, 2013), LOVD 3.0 (17 entries, VUS 10x, likely pathogenic 3x, pathogenic 1x) and __ARUP Laboratories (3-Uncertain) databases. The variant was not identified in the following control databases: the 1000 Genomes Project, the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project, or the Genome Aggregation Database (March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). A truncating variant at the same location, c.8009C>A (p.Ser2670*), is classified in ClinVar as Pathogenic (3 stars, reviewed by expert panel). The variant is located in the BRCA2 DNA binding domain (Yang 2002, Guidugli 2017), increasing the likelihood that it may have clinical significance. Through a homology-directed DNA repair assay, the p.Ser2670Leu variant was found to substantially decrease HDR compared to wild-type BRCA2 and known neutral variants, and was predicted to be deleterious (Guidugli_2017_PMID:29394989). However, Karchin (2008) and Chenevix-Trench (2006) described this variant on an allele that was lost by LOH in breast tissue, a result that has been associated with increased probability of neutrality. Furthermore, Myriad genetics has also reported this variant to co-occur with a second pathogenic variant (Chenevix-Trench 2006) increasing the likelihood this variant may be benign. The p.Ser2670 residue is conserved in mammals but not in more distantly related organisms, and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more pathogenic role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely pathogenic. - |
