Variant summary: CFTR c.1584+12T>C alters a non-conserved nucleotide located at a position not widely known to affect splicing. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00022 in 252294 control chromosomes (gnomAD and publication data). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in CFTR causing Chronic Pancreatitis Risk (0.00022 vs 0.0063), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1584+12T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CF and CBAVD (e.g., Ivaschenko_1993, Zielenski_1995, Raraigh_2022), however without strong evidence for causality and it was also reported in controls (e.g., Rosendahl_2012). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Chronic Pancreatitis Risk. Additionally, the variant has been reported in two individuals affected with CF in the CFTR-France database who also harbored two additional unspecified CF-causing mutations, providing evidence supporting a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 23775370, 8445619, 9239681, 7681034, 34782259, 22427236, 36409994, 1284534, 7573058). Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as VUS (n=2), likely benign (n=1), or benign (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Cystic fibrosis Benign:2
- -
This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
CFTR-related disorder Uncertain:1
This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
