Classification rationale
1

The BRCA2 c.7970A>C (p.Lys2657Thr, K2657T) variant has been reported in ClinVar, where the ClinGen ENIGMA expert panel classified it as uncertain significance and other submitters reported likely pathogenic and uncertain significance assertions.

This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and is present once in gnomAD v4.1 (1/1614028 alleles overall; highest observed frequency 1/59996 in Admixed American individuals), supporting rarity but not complete absence from population databases.

In a calibrated BRCA2 functional study summarized by the ENIGMA BRCA1/2 specification, p.Lys2657Thr showed protein function similar to pathogenic control variants, supporting PS3 at strong strength.

Computational evidence predicts no significant splice impact (SpliceAI max delta score 0.01), while the missense prediction profile is mixed under ENIGMA thresholds (REVEL 0.799; BayesDel 0.270216), so PP3 and BP4 are not independently met.

5

A BRCA2 clinical-history likelihood ratio of 1.188967663938105 from 1 proband falls in the ENIGMA neutral zone (>0.48 and <2.08), so neither PP4 nor BP5 is supported by the reviewed multifactorial clinical-history data.

Population
gnomAD v2.1Absent from gnomAD v2.1.
gnomAD v4.1This variant is present in gnomAD v4.1 (AF= 6.19568e-07; MAF= 0.00006%, 1/1614028 alleles, homozygotes = 0) and has highest observed frequency in the Admixed American population (AF= 1.66678e-05; MAF= 0.00167%, 1/59996 alleles, homozygotes = 0).
ClinVar evidence
02
ClinVar
This variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (1 clinical laboratory) and as Uncertain significance (1 clinical laboratory) and as Uncertain Significance by ClinGen ENIGMA BRCA1 and BRCA2 Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen (expert panel).
Functional evidence
03
Functional
OncoKB: Unknown Oncogenic Effect
OncoKB did not identify variant-specific reviewed functional evidence for this variant; gene-level curated context is available for reviewer follow-up. BRCA2, a tumor suppressor involved in the DNA damage response, is mutated in various cancer types.
