VCEP Guidelines

Applied ACMG/AMP Criteria (VCEP Specific)

Filter Criteria:
PVS1

PVS1 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PVS1 is: 'Very Strong Null variant (nonsense, frameshift, splice site (donor/acceptor ±1,2), initiation codon, single or multi-exon deletion) in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is an intronic change at c.4358-22T>G, located outside the ±1,2 canonical splice sites. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PS1

PS1 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS1 is: 'Apply PS1 for predicted missense substitutions or exonic/intronic variants with the same predicted impact on splicing as a previously classified pathogenic variant.' The evidence for this variant shows: there is no known pathogenic variant with the same predicted transcript or protein impact. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PS2

PS2 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PS2 is: 'De novo (both maternity and paternity confirmed) in a patient with the disease and no family history.' The evidence for this variant shows: no information on de novo status is available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PS3

PS3 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PS3 is: 'Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies supportive of a damaging effect on the gene or gene product.' The evidence for this variant shows: no functional assays have been performed for c.4358-22T>G. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PS4

PS4 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PS4 is: 'The prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared to the prevalence in controls (p ≤ 0.05 and OR ≥ 4).' The evidence for this variant shows: no case-control data or enrichment in affected individuals. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PM1

PM1 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM1 is: 'Located in a mutational hot spot and/or critical and well-established functional domain without benign variation.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is an intronic change outside known functional domains. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PM2

PM2 (Supporting)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM2 is: 'Supporting Absent from controls in an outbred population, from gnomAD v2.1 (non-cancer, exome only) and gnomAD v3.1 (non-cancer).' The evidence for this variant shows: MAF = 0% and absence from gnomAD databases. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength because the variant is absent in population controls.

PM3

PM3 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM3 is: 'Apply for a patient with phenotype consistent with BRCA1-related Fanconi Anemia and co-occurring variants in the same gene.' The evidence for this variant shows: no Fanconi Anemia phenotype data or co-occurrence information. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PM4

PM4 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM4 is: 'Protein length changes as a result of in-frame deletions/insertions in a non-repeat region or stop-loss variants.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is intronic and does not alter protein length. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PM5

PM5 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PM5 is: 'Protein termination codon (PTC) variant in an exon where a different proven pathogenic PTC variant has been seen.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is an intronic change and not a PTC. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PM6

PM6 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PM6 is: 'Assumed de novo, but without confirmation of paternity and maternity.' The evidence for this variant shows: no de novo evidence. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PP1

PP1 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PP1 is: 'Co-segregation with disease in multiple affected family members in a gene definitively known to cause the disease.' The evidence for this variant shows: no segregation data available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PP2

PP2 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP2 is: 'Missense variant in a gene with a low rate of benign missense variation and where missense variants are a common mechanism of disease.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is intronic, not missense. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PP3

PP3 (Supporting)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PP3 is: 'Supporting Apply PP3 for predicted splicing (SpliceAI ≥0.2) for silent, missense/in-frame and intronic variants outside of donor and acceptor 1,2 sites.' The evidence for this variant shows: a SpliceAI acceptor loss score of 0.31, exceeding the 0.2 threshold. Therefore, this criterion is applied at Supporting strength because the variant is predicted to impact splicing.

PP4

PP4 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for PP4 is: 'Breast cancer is very common and highly heterogeneous; use only to capture combined LR towards pathogenicity based on multifactorial likelihood clinical data.' The evidence for this variant shows: no multifactorial clinical data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

PP5

PP5 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for PP5 is: 'Reputable source reports variant as pathogenic without available evidence.' The evidence for this variant shows: not reported in ClinVar or other databases. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BA1

BA1 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BA1 is: 'Stand Alone FAF >0.001 in gnomAD non-cancer populations.' The evidence for this variant shows: MAF = 0%. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BS1

BS1 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BS1 is: 'Filter allele frequency >0.0001 in gnomAD non-cancer populations.' The evidence for this variant shows: MAF = 0%. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BS2

BS2 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BS2 is: 'Applied in absence of features of recessive disease (Fanconi Anemia) with ≥4 points.' The evidence for this variant shows: no data on absence in healthy adults or recessive phenotype. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BS3

BS3 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BS3 is: 'Well-established functional studies show no damaging effect on protein function.' The evidence for this variant shows: no functional studies available. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BS4

BS4 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BS4 is: 'Lack of segregation in affected family members (LR ≤0.05).' The evidence for this variant shows: no segregation data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BP1

BP1 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BP1 is: 'Silent substitution, missense or in-frame variant outside clinically important functional domains with no splicing predicted (SpliceAI ≤0.1).' The evidence for this variant shows: SpliceAI = 0.31, exceeding 0.1. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BP2

BP2 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP2 is: 'Observed in trans with a pathogenic variant for a fully penetrant dominant disorder.' The evidence for this variant shows: no co-occurrence data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BP3

BP3 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP3 is: 'In-frame deletions/insertions in a repetitive region without a known function.' The evidence for this variant shows: it is an intronic single-nucleotide change. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BP4

BP4 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BP4 is: 'Missense/in-frame or intronic variants outside donor/acceptor sites with no predicted impact via splicing (SpliceAI ≤0.1).' The evidence for this variant shows: SpliceAI = 0.31, above the threshold. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BP5

BP5 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BP5 is: 'Co-observation with pathogenic variant in another breast–ovarian cancer gene without specific phenotype.' The evidence for this variant shows: no co-observation data. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BP6

BP6 (Not Applied)

According to standard ACMG guidelines, the rule for BP6 is: 'Reputable source reports variant as benign without evidence.' The evidence for this variant shows: no such reports. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.

BP7

BP7 (Not Applied)

According to VCEP guidelines, the rule for BP7 is: 'Intronic variants outside conserved donor/acceptor motifs at or beyond positions +7/−21 if BP4 met.' The evidence for this variant shows: although at −22, BP4 is not met. Therefore, this criterion is not applied.
