Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:1Benign:3
The BRIP1 variant designated as NM_032043.2:c.790C>T (p.Arg264Trp) is now classified as likely benign. The variant is present in approximately 1 in 500 individuals in European and African populations (exac.broadinstitute.org). This population frequency is not consistent with a high-risk cancer variant. In addition, there are no reports of pathogenic missense variants in this BRIP1 protein domain. This variant has been classified as likely benign by other laboratories (ClinVar Variation ID: 128195). Bayesian analysis integrating all of this data (Tavtigian et al, 2018, PMID:29300386) gives a 1% probability of pathogenicity, which is consistent with a classification of likely benign. This variant is not predicted to alter BRIP1 function or modify cancer risk. A modest (less than 2 fold) increase in cancer risk due to this variant cannot be entirely excluded. This reclassification analysis was performed in conjunction with the family studies project as part of the University of Washington Find My Variant Study. -

- -
This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance as there is insufficient evidence to determine its impact on protein function and/or cancer risk. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:3
- -
This alteration is classified as likely 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. -

c.790C>T, located in exon 6 of the BRIP1, is predicted to result in the substitution of arginine by tryptophan at codon 264, p.(Arg264Trp). This variant is found in 130/117794, with a filter allele frequency of 0.089% at 99% confidence in the gnomAD v2.1.1 database (European non-Finnish non-cancer data set). The SpliceAI algorithm predicts no significant impact on splicing. The REVEL meta-predictor score for this variant (0.338) is indeterminate regarding the effect that it may have on protein function according Pejaver 2022 thresholds (PMID: 36413997). This variant has been reported in the ClinVar database (2x benign, 17x likely benign, 3x uncertain significance) and in the LOVD database (6x likely benign, 1x uncertain significance, 2x not classified). Based on currently available information, the variant c.790C>T is classified as an uncertain significance variant according to ACMG guidelines. -
not specified Uncertain:1Benign:2Other:1
- -
- -
This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Fanconi anemia complementation group J Uncertain:1Benign: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). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
Malignant tumor of breast Benign:2
The BRIP1 p.Arg264Trp variant was identified in 55 of 46810 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from Italian, American, British and Colombian individuals or families with a wide spectrum of cancers (in population based studies, unselected for family history): BRCA1/2 negative, male/female breast cancer, prostate cancer, ovarian cancer, Lynch syndrome associated cancer and/or polyps, CRC, pancreatic cancer, hereditary prostate cancer and Fanconi anemia; and was present in 44 of 29724 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from healthy individuals (Silvestri_2011_21165771, Bodian_2014_24728327, Hu_2016_26483394, Yurgelun_2015_25980754, Tung_20016_26976419, Seal_2006_17033622, Easton_2016_26921362, Levitus_2005_16116423, Pearlman_2016_27978560, Ramus_2015_26315354, Cock-Rada_2017_28528518, Ray_2009_19935797). In one prostate cancer family, the variant was identified in two out of three cases and was not present in the unaffected brother of the proband (Ray_2009_19935797). In 1 male proband with breast cancer, diagnosed at 76 yrs of age, DNA extracted from the micro-dissected breast tumor sample showed that no loss of the wild-type allele had occurred in tumor cells (Silvestri_2011_21165771). The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs28997569) “With Likely benign allele”, ClinVar (classified likely benign by Invitae, Ambry Genetics, Genetic Services Laboratory (University of Washington), Counsyl, Color Genomics Inc, Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano, and GeneDx, and classification not provided by ITMI), Clinvitae (5x) and Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database, and was not identified in Cosmic or MutDB. The variant was also identified in control databases in 229 of 276746 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0008 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). It was observed in the following populations: African in 17 of 24030 chromosomes (freq: 0.0007), “Other” in 11 of 6452 chromosomes (freq: 0.002), Latino in 15 of 34408 chromosomes (freq: 0.0004), European Non-Finnish in 145 of 126288 chromosomes (freq: 0.001), Ashkenazi Jewish in 28 of 10142 chromosomes (freq: 0.003), European Finnish in 7 of 25786 chromosomes (freq: 0.0003), and South Asian in 6 of 30782 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002); it was not observed in the East Asian population. The p.Arg264 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 Trp 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, HumanSpliceFinder) 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 benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -
