Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_032043.3(BRIP1):c.1201_1204dupTGTG(p.Ala402ValfsTer21) variant causes a frameshift change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. A402A) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:2
- -
This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a frameshift predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -
Familial cancer of breast;C1836860:Fanconi anemia complementation group J Pathogenic:1
ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 182369). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala402Valfs*21) in the BRIP1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRIP1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16116423, 17033622, 21964575). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with skin and ovarian cancer (PMID: 26681312). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Observed in an individual with ovarian cancer (Carter 2018); Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26681312, 30322717) -
Familial ovarian cancer Pathogenic:1

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The c.1201_1204dupTGTG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 8 of the BRIP1 gene, results from a duplication of TGTG at nucleotide positions 1201 to 1204, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.A402Vfs*21). This alteration was identified in 1/10030 consecutive patients referred for evaluation by an NGS hereditary cancer panel; this patient had a history of ovarian and skin cancer (Susswein LR et al. Genet. Med. 2016 08;18(8):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. -
