Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
The RUNX1 c.1332_1334delinsG (p.Leu445GlyfsTer127) variant has been reported in ClinVar, including a Likely Pathogenic expert-panel classification by the ClinGen Myeloid Malignancy VCEP.
2
This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, so the observed population frequency is 0 and is below the RUNX1 PM2_Supporting threshold of 0.00005.
3
This is a RUNX1 frameshift variant in a gene with an established loss-of-function disease mechanism, supporting use of the RUNX1 PVS1 framework, although the distal position suggests a downgraded rather than full very-strong PVS1 strength.
4
SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant, with a max delta score of 0.00, which supports the RUNX1 PM5_Supporting rule for downstream nonsense or frameshift variants and does not support PP3 or BP4 application for this frameshift event.
Final determination:
Tavtigian et.al., 2020 - Bayesian adaptation of Richards et.al., 2015 v3.1.0 point-based framework yields a total score of 7, which maps to Likely Pathogenic under the specified Tavtigian-style ranges.
Criteria assessment
ACMG/AMP criteria review
Criteria shown when status is available
All criteria require review: For research and educational purposes only.
| Criterion | Status | Rationale | Evidence used |
|---|---|---|---|
| PVS1 | Met | This variant is a RUNX1 frameshift variant in a gene with an established loss-of-function disease mechanism. Because the frameshift occurs near the 3' end and is predicted to alter the terminal portion of the protein rather than undergo classic nonsense-mediated decay, a downgraded PVS1 strength is appropriate under the RUNX1-specific framework; PVS1_Strong is supported pending manual confirmation of distal-region handling. |
cspec
pvs1_gene_context
pvs1_variant_assessment
|
| PS1 | N/A | PS1 is not applicable because this is a frameshift variant, not a variant producing the same established amino acid substitution as a previously classified pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant. |
cspec
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | No confirmed de novo occurrence with maternity and paternity established was identified for this variant, so PS2 cannot be applied from the available evidence. |
cspec
clinvar
|
| PS3 | N/A | No variant-specific functional assay data were identified here, and the RUNX1 specification states that PS3 is not applied when the variant already meets PVS1. |
cspec
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | This variant is reported in ClinVar, including an expert-panel classification, but the available evidence does not provide a verified count of affected probands meeting RUNX1 phenotypic criteria. PS4 therefore cannot be independently applied from the reviewed materials. |
cspec
clinvar
|
| PM1 | N/A | PM1 is not applicable because this variant is not a missense change affecting the RUNX1 runt homology domain hotspot residues defined by the RUNX1 specification. |
cspec
|
| PM2 | Met | This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, so the observed population frequency is 0, which is below the RUNX1 PM2_Supporting threshold of 0.00005. |
cspec
gnomad_v2
gnomad_v4
|
| PM3 | N/A | PM3 is not applicable because the RUNX1 phenotype framework is not evaluated as a recessive disorder in this specification. |
cspec
|
| PM4 | N/A | PM4 is not applicable because this variant is a frameshift, whereas the RUNX1 PM4 rule is intended for in-frame insertions/deletions in the runt homology domain or for stop-loss variants causing a protein extension. |
cspec
|
| PM5 | Met | Under the RUNX1 specification, PM5_Supporting can be applied to nonsense and frameshift variants downstream of c.98. This variant is a downstream frameshift, SpliceAI predicts no significant splice effect with a max delta score of 0.00, and PM1 does not apply, so PM5_Supporting is met. |
cspec
spliceai
|
| PM6 | Not assessed | No assumed de novo occurrences without full parentage confirmation were identified for this variant, so PM6 cannot be applied from the available evidence. |
cspec
clinvar
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | No segregation data were identified for this variant, so PP1 cannot be applied. |
cspec
|
| PP2 | N/A | PP2 is not applicable in the RUNX1 specification. |
cspec
|
| PP3 | N/A | PP3 is not applicable because this is not a missense, synonymous, or qualifying intronic variant under the RUNX1 computational rule. SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact, with a max delta score of 0.00. |
cspec
spliceai
|
| PP4 | N/A | PP4 is not applicable in the RUNX1 specification because the associated phenotype is not considered sufficiently specific for this rule. |

| PP5 | Met | Expert panel ClinGen Myeloid Malignancy Variant Curation Expert Panel classified as Likely pathogenic. |
cspec

|
| BA1 | Not met | This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1 and therefore does not meet the RUNX1 BA1 threshold of at least 0.0015. |

gnomad_v4
|
| BS1 | Not met | This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1 and therefore does not meet the RUNX1 BS1 frequency range of 0.00015 to 0.0015. |

|
| BS2 | N/A | BS2 is not applicable in the RUNX1 specification. |
cspec
|
| BS3 | Not assessed | No directly reviewed functional studies showing normal RUNX1 function for this variant were identified, so BS3 cannot be applied. |
cspec
oncokb
|
| BS4 | Not assessed | No non-segregation data were identified for this variant, so BS4 cannot be applied. |
cspec
|
| BP1 | N/A | BP1 is not applicable in the RUNX1 specification. |
cspec
|
| BP2 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified that this variant was observed in trans with a pathogenic RUNX1 variant or in cis with a pathogenic variant, so BP2 cannot be applied. |
cspec
|
| BP3 | N/A | BP3 is not applicable in the RUNX1 specification. |
cspec
|
| BP4 | N/A | BP4 is not applicable because this is not a missense, synonymous, or intronic variant within the RUNX1 BP4 computational framework. SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact, with a max delta score of 0.00, but that alone does not make BP4 applicable to this frameshift variant. |
cspec
spliceai
|
| BP5 | N/A | BP5 is not applicable in the RUNX1 specification. |
cspec
|
| BP6 | N/A | BP6 is not applicable because the RUNX1 VCEP does not use this criterion. |
cspec
|
| BP7 | N/A | BP7 is not applicable because this variant is neither synonymous nor intronic under the RUNX1 BP7 rule. |
