Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineSep 01, 2020The p.Glu23ValfsX17 variant in BRCA1 has been reported in numerous individuals with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) and is a known pathogenic Ashkenazi Jewish founder variant (Struewing 1997 PMID: 9145676, Abeliovich 2013 PMID: 9042909). It has also been identified in 0.4% (42/10368) of Ashkenazi Jewish and 0.009% (11/128780) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Please note that this frequency is low enough to be consistent with the frequency of HBOC in the general population. This frameshift variant is predicted to alter the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at position 23 and lead to a premature termination codon 17 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the BRCA1 gene is an established disease mechanism in individuals with HBOC. Additionally, this variant was classified as Pathogenic on April 22, 2016 by the ClinGen-approved ENIGMA expert panel (ClinVar SCV000282348.1). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for HBOC in an autosomal dominant manner based upon the predicted impact to the protein and presence in multiple affected individuals.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJun 14, 2016The c.68_69delAG (p.Glu23ValfsTer17) variant, also commonly known as 185delAG, is a frameshift variant that is very well described in the literature as one of the most frequent variants found in breast cancer (Shattuck-Eidens et al. 1995; Offit et al. 1996). It was first identified in a study by Simard et al. (1994) in index cases from four unrelated Canadian families with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC). Wang et al. (2012) conducted a meta-analysis of over 29 studies published between 2000 and 2010 and determined the overall frequency of the p.Glu23ValfsTer17 variant in 2128 breast cancer cases to be 0.072. The variant is one of three known common founder germline variants primarily found in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish heritage (Struewing et al. 1997; Abeliovich et al. 1997; Laitman et al. 2013) and has been detected in 20% of Ashkenazi Jewish women diagnosed with breast cancer before age 42 years (Offit et al 1996). In the Ashkenazi Jewish population, the variant is associated with a risk of between 56% and 83% of breast cancer and of between 14% and 58% risk of ovarian cancer by the age of 70 (Struewing et al. 1997; Antoniou et al. 2005; Finkelman et al. 2012). The variant has been observed in individuals of other ethnicities (Wang et al. 2012; Laitman et al. 2013). The variant is reported at a frequency of 0.00042 in the European (Non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Based on the available evidence, the p.Glu23ValfsTer17 variant is classified as pathogenic for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneKor MSAJan 01, 2020This sequence change deletes 2 nucleotides from exon 2 of the BRCA1 mRNA (c.68_69delAG), causing a frameshift after codon 23 and the creation of a premature translation stop signal 17 amino acid residues later - p.(Glu23Valfs*17). This is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product.This variant, also known as BRCA1_185delAG or 187delAG, is one of three main pathogenic founder variants in the Ashkenazi Jewish population although it has been observed in individuals from other ethnicities as well (PMID: 23199084 ). This mutation has been described in the mutation database ClinVar(Variation ID: 17662). -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 17, 2022The c.68_69delAG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 1 of the BRCA1 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 68 to 69, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.E23Vfs*17). This alteration is one of three well-characterized Ashkenazi Jewish founder mutations, with an overall carrier frequency of nearly 1% in this population (Struewing JP et al. Nat. Genet. 1995 Oct;11:198-200; Schubert EL et al. Genet Test, 1997;1:41-6; Hartge P et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 1999 Apr;64:963-70). This germline mutation has been reported in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent, as well as in cohorts of other ethnicities, with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome, including individuals with male breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, and prostate cancer (Antoniou AC et al. J. Med. Genet. 2005 Jul;42:602-3; Lucas AL et al. Clin. Cancer Res. 2013 Jul;19:3396-403; Lucas AL et al. Cancer. 2014 Jul;120:1960-7; Bernards SS et al.

J Clin Oncol, 2019 05;37:1070-1080; Ashour M et al. Cancer Manag Res, 2019 Jul;11:6275-6284). In a large case control-study, this variant was reported in 30/60,466 breast cancer cases and in 8/53,461 controls (Dorling et al. N Engl J Med. 2021 02;384:428-439). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 185delAG, 187delAG, and 189delAG in 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. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthAug 23, 2021This variant deletes 2 nucleotides in exon 2 of the BRCA1 gene, causing a frameshift and a premature translational stop signal. This variant is also known as 185delAG and 187delAG in the literature. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant is a well-known founder mutation in the Ashkenazi Jewish population and occurs at 0.96-1.14% minor allele frequency (PMID: 7550349, 8571953, 30152102). This variant has been reported in dozens of individuals and families affected with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 7894492, 7611277, 7837387, 8533757, 8531968, 8642955, 9042909, 9150153, 21643751, 30480775). This variant also has been observed in individuals from diverse ethnicities in Africa, America, Asia and Europe (PMID: 8651293, 24312913). The risk of female breast cancer among carriers of this mutation is 55-83% by age 70, and the risk of ovarian cancer is 12-58% by age 70 (PMID: 9145676, 15994883, 22430266). A breast cancer case-control meta-analysis has detected this variant in 30/60436 cases and 8/53453 unaffected individuals with an odds ratio (OR) of 3.317 (95%CI 1.52 to 7.235) (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID BRCA1_001114). This variant has been identified in 58/282442 chromosomes (42/10368 Ashkenazi Jewish 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, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The p.Glu23ValfsX17 deletion variant is one of three known founder pathogenic mutations common to individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent (Petrucelli 1998). This deletion is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 23 and leads to a premature stop codon 17 codons downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein product and loss of function. Loss of function of the BRCA1 gene is an established disease mechanism in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
