Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -14 ACMG points: 0P and 14B. BP4BA1BP7BS2

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.705A>G (p.Leu235=) variant in APC is a synonymous (silent) variant that is not predicted to impact splicing by multiple splicing predictors including SpliceAI, VarSEAK and MaxEntScan (BP4, BP7). This variant has been observed 3 (≥ 2) times in homozygous state in gnomAD 2.1.1 (BS2). The highest population minor allele frequency in the non-cancer population of gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.004669 in the Finnish population, which is higher than the ClinGen InSiGHT Hereditary Colorectal Cancer/Polyposis Variant Curation Expert Panel (HCCP VCEP) threshold (>0.001) for BA1, and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Benign for FAP based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the HCCP VCEP: BA1, BS2, BP4, and BP7 (Specification Version 1.0; date of approval: 12/12/2022).

Genes affected
APC (HGNC:583): (APC regulator of WNT signaling pathway) This gene encodes a tumor suppressor protein that acts as an antagonist of the Wnt signaling pathway. It is also involved in other processes including cell migration and adhesion, transcriptional activation, and apoptosis. Defects in this gene cause familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), an autosomal dominant pre-malignant disease that usually progresses to malignancy. Mutations in the APC gene have been found to occur in most colorectal cancers, where disease-associated mutations tend to be clustered in a small region designated the mutation cluster region (MCR) and result in a truncated protein product.

ClinGen InSiGHT Hereditary Colorectal Cancer/Polyposis Variant Curation Expert Panel
Significance: Benign
Review Status: reviewed by expert panel
Collection Method: curation

The c.705A>G (p.Leu235=) variant in APC is a synonymous (silent) variant that is not predicted to impact splicing by multiple splicing predictors including SpliceAI, VarSEAK and MaxEntScan (BP4, BP7). This variant has been observed 3 times in homozygous state in gnomAD 2.1.1 (BS2). The highest population minor allele frequency in the non-cancer population of gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.004669 in the Finnish population, which is higher than the ClinGen InSiGHT Hereditary Colorectal Cancer/Polyposis Variant Curation Expert Panel (HCCP VCEP) threshold (>0.001) for BA1, and therefore meets this criterion (BA1). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Benign for FAP based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the HCCP VCEP: BA1, BS2, BP4, and BP7 (Specification Version 1.0; date of approval: 12/12/2022). -

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance: Benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -

Carcinoma of colon Benign:1
-
Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System
Significance: Benign
Review Status: no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Leu235Leu variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not alter an amino acid residue and is not located near a splice junction. It has been reported in the UMD (x1) and LOVD (x2) databases. In addition, it is observed as a low frequency variant in the ESP cohort, increasing the likelihood this variant does not have clinical significance. In summary, based on the above information, this variant is predicted benign. -
