Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 0P and 1B. BP5

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000552.5(VWF):c.3797C>T variant in VWF is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of proline by leucine at amino acid 1266 (p.Pro1266Leu). The population frequency and in silico pathogenicity predictors of this variant are between the pathogenic and benign thresholds established by the VWD VCEP. This variant has been extensively researched and published in the literature and has been associated with VWD type 2B Malmö/NY. This sub-type of VWD type 2B is characterized by very mild clinical presentation if any, typically no thrombocytopenia and normal multimers. No published case where the variant under consideration was the sole driver of disease had a combination of: activity/antigen ratio <0.7, documented abnormal bleeding phenotype, and enhanced response to ristocetin. This variant has been observed in at least 1 patient with an alternate molecular basis for disease. The patient with VWD type 2, also carried the Arg1315His variant, which has been classified likely pathogenic respectively for VWD type 2M respectively by the VWD VCEP (BP5; PMIDs 16985174). Additionally, carriers of this variant have been documented as being treated with DDAVP without subsequent thrombocytopenia in at least two reports (PMIDs 20305138, 27353798). This observation suggests that the enhanced response to ristocetin data in patients is potentially an artifact and does not represent a biologically relevant increase in binding affinity to GPIb. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely benign for hereditary VWD based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen VWD VCEP: BP5.

Genes affected
VWF (HGNC:12726): (von Willebrand factor) This gene encodes a glycoprotein involved in hemostasis. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed following assembly into large multimeric complexes. These complexes function in the adhesion of platelets to sites of vascular injury and the transport of various proteins in the blood. Mutations in this gene result in von Willebrand disease, an inherited bleeding disorder. An unprocessed pseudogene has been found on chromosome 22. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]
