Classification rationale
1

The BRCA2 c.8362T>C (p.Trp2788Arg, p.W2788R) variant has not been observed in COSMIC and has been reported in ClinVar, including a Likely Pathogenic expert panel classification from ClinGen ENIGMA.

2

This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, supporting rarity in population controls and meeting PM2 at Supporting strength.

3

In a calibrated functional study, this variant showed protein function similar to pathogenic control variants, and the BRCA2 VCEP functional evidence table assigns PS3 at Strong strength, supporting a damaging effect on BRCA2 function.

PMID:33609447 ↗
4

Computational evidence supports a damaging protein effect: the variant lies in the BRCA2 DNA-binding domain, BayesDel no-AF is 0.314871, REVEL is 0.897, and SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact with a maximum delta score of 0.03.
