Classification rationale
1

The MSH2 c.67T>C (p.Phe23Leu) variant has not been observed in COSMIC somatic cancer records and has been reported in ClinVar predominantly as benign or likely benign, with an aggregate ClinVar classification of Benign.

This variant is present at high frequency in population databases, including gnomAD v4.1 at 410/1600398 alleles with 8 homozygotes and grpmax filtering allele frequency 0.00394201, which exceeds the MSH2 VCEP BA1 threshold.

OncoKB: Unknown Oncogenic Effect
OncoKB has not reviewed this specific variant; no variant-level oncogenicity or biological effect is available. Gene-level context: MSH2, a DNA mismatch repair protein, is frequently mutated in colorectal, small bowel, and endometrial cancers.
