Classification rationale
1

The EPCAM c.457A>G (p.Arg153Gly) variant has been observed once in somatic cancers in COSMIC (COSV55394328) and has been reported in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance with one clinical laboratory submission.

This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and is present in gnomAD v4.1 at 3/1,611,766 alleles (AF 0.00019%), with a highest observed population frequency of 0.00025% in European non-Finnish individuals, which is below the 0.1% PM2 threshold.

Available computational evidence does not support a splice effect, with a SpliceAI maximum delta score of 0.01, and the REVEL score of 0.363 does not provide concordant evidence for either a pathogenic or benign missense effect.

OncoKB: Unknown Oncogenic Effect
OncoKB has not reviewed this specific variant; no variant-level oncogenicity or biological effect is available. Gene-level context: EPCAM, a transmembrane glycoprotein, is overexpressed in various cancer types.
In silico evidence
