Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Neuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM | May 20, 2023 | The stop gained c.4327C>T (p.Arg1443Ter) variant in the BRCA1 gene as been observed in individual(s) with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (Kim, Haeyoung et al., 2012). It is commonly reported in individuals of French Canadian ancestry (Cavallone, Luca et al., 2010). This variant is reported with the allele frequency (0.002%) in the gnomAD Exomes. It is submitted to ClinVar as Pathogenic (reviewed by expert panel). This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease causing. Computational evidence (MutationTaster - Disease causing) predicts damaging effect on protein structure and function for this variant. The nucleotide change c.4327C>T in BRCA1 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:6Other:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Jan 31, 2024 | This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1443*) in the BRCA1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BRCA1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20104584). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 16030099, 19656415, 22798144, 23233716). It is commonly reported in individuals of French Canadian ancestry (PMID: 10422801, 11250694, 15883839, 20694749). This variant is also known as 4446C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 17675). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine | Nov 09, 2023 | The p.Arg1443X variant in BRCA1 has been previously reported in >100 individuals with BRCA1-associated cancers and is considered to be a French-Canadian founder mutation (Vézina 2005 PMID:15883839, Hall 2009 PMID:19241424). It has also been identified in 0.002% (1/41432) African/African American chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org, v.3.1.2). This frequency is low enough to be consistent with the frequency of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) in the general population. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 1443, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. This is corroborated by a functional study that provides some evidence that this variant results in a truncated protein that lacks the BRCT domains (Caligo 2009 PMID:18680205). Heterozygous loss of function of the BRCA1 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (HBOC). Additionally, this variant was classified as pathogenic on April 22, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (Variant ID 17675). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant HBOC. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PS4, PM2_Supporting, PVS1_Strong. - |

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Aug 15, 2016 | Variant summary: The c.4327C>T (p.Arg1443X) variant in BRCA1 gene is a nonsense mutation. The mutation is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The variant was observed in the large and broad cohorts of the ExAC project at an allele frequency of 0.000016 (2/121390 chrs tested). This frequency does not exceed the maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in BRCA1 (0.001). The variant has been reported in multiple HBOC families and was shown to segregate with disease phenotype. It has been classified as pathogenic by multiple reputable databases/clinical laboratories. Taken together, the variant was classified as Pathogenic. - |

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | May 09, 2023 | This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 12 of the BRCA1 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in at least 30 individuals affected with breast, ovarian and uterine cancer (PMID: 7894491, 10422801, 10682662, 11179017, 15726418, 17221156, 19656415, 19863560, 20104584, 21324516, 22798144, 26681312, 27553291, 28724667, 28993434, 29470806, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA1_000312). A breast cancer case-control meta-analysis detected this variant in 9/41890 cases and 1/41607 unaffected individuals with an OR 8.3 (95% CI 1.05-16.0) (PMID: 28283652). This variant has been detected in over 100 suspected hereditary breast and ovarian cancer families (PMID: 7493024, 16030099, 18821011, 19241424, 19329713, 21203900, 23233716, 29907814), in which haplotype analyses suggest that this was a founder mutation in the French-Canadian population and also arose independently worldwide (PMID: 9792861, 15883839, 23199084). This variant has been identified in 7/282760 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of BRCA1 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. - |

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Nov 24, 2021 | The p.R1443* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.4327C>T), located in coding exon 11 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4327. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 11. This mutation is a well-known French Canadian founder mutation and has been reported in numerous breast and/or ovarian cancer families to date (Ferla R et al. Ann. Oncol. 2007 Jun;18 Suppl 6:vi93-8; Ghadirian P et al. Clin. Genet. 2009 Nov;76(5):421-6; Janavicius R et al. EPMA J. 2010 Sep;1(3):397-412; Zhang S et al. Gynecol. Oncol. 2011 May;121(2):353-7). In addition to French Canadians, this mutation has also been identified in multiple other populations (McKean-Cowdin R et al. Hum. Genet. 2005 May;116(6):497-506; Donenberg T et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2016 Aug;159(1):131-8; Jalkh N et al. BMC Med Genomics 2017 Feb;10(1):8; Palmero EI et al. Sci Rep. 2018 Jun;8(1):9188; Singh J et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2018 Jul;170(1):189-196). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 4446C>T and R1443X in some published literature. 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. - |

This variant has been reported in at least 30 individuals affected with breast, ovarian and uterine cancer (PMID: 7894491, 10422801, 10682662, 11179017, 15726418, 17221156, 19656415, 19863560, 20104584, 21324516, 22798144, 26681312, 27553291, 28724667, 28993434, 29470806, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA1_000312). A breast cancer case-control meta-analysis detected this variant in 9/41890 cases and 1/41607 unaffected individuals with an OR 8.3 (95% CI 1.05-16.0) (PMID: 28283652). This variant has been detected in over 100 suspected hereditary breast and ovarian cancer families (PMID: 7493024, 16030099, 18821011, 19241424, 19329713, 21203900, 23233716, 29907814), in which haplotype analyses suggest that this was a founder mutation in the French-Canadian population and also arose independently worldwide (PMID: 9792861, 15883839, 23199084). This variant has been identified in 7/282760 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD).

Malignant tumor of breast Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System | - | The p.Arg1443X variant has been previously and extensively reported in the literature. In two selected publications, this variant was identified in 18 of 294 individuals with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (Selected publications: Tonin 1998, Castilla 1994). This variant was identified as a founder French-Canadian mutation and a common haplotype was described; multiple individuals from these families had breast or ovarian cancers; additional data suggest this variant may also have arisen independently at least three times. The variant is described 83 times in the UMD database as "causal" and 126 times in the BIC database as clinically important. The p.Arg1443X variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 1443, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the BRCA1 gene are an established mechanism of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. - |
