Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
The BRCA2 c.8375T>C (p.Leu2792Pro) variant 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 is present once in gnomAD v4.1 (1/1613924 alleles; AF 6.19608e-07), supporting rarity but not strict absence across available population datasets.
3
In the ENIGMA BRCA2 curated functional dataset, two calibrated studies showed damaging protein function for this exact variant, and Table 9 assigns PS3 at strong strength.
4
In silico data support a damaging protein effect within the BRCA2 DNA-binding domain, with BayesDel 0.54225 and REVEL 0.931, while SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact (max delta 0.03).
Final determination:
Likely pathogenic classification is supported because one strong and two supporting pathogenic criteria are met (PS3_Strong, PP3_Supporting, and PP5_Supporting), satisfying the ENIGMA Table 3 likely pathogenic combining rule.
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 | Not met | This variant is a missense substitution, p.(Leu2792Pro), and does not fall into the BRCA2 null-variant or canonical splice categories used for PVS1. SpliceAI predicts no significant splice effect (max delta score 0.03), so available evidence does not support applying PVS1. |

|
| PS1 | Not met | No distinct previously classified pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant producing the same amino acid change was identified in the available ClinVar evidence, so PS1 is not established. |

| PS2 | N/A | This criterion is marked not applicable in the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification. |
cspec
|
| PS3 | Met | In the ENIGMA BRCA2 functional assay table, this exact variant, c.8375T>C (p.Leu2792Pro), is reported by two calibrated studies to show damaging protein function, and the table assigns PS3 at strong strength. |

| PS4 | Not assessed | No case-control analysis or other evidence showing statistically significant enrichment in affected individuals was identified for this variant, and no exact-variant entry was identified in the reviewed BRCA2 multifactorial/posterior tables for PS4 use. |

cspec
|
| PM2 | Not met | This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1, but it is present in gnomAD v4.1 at 1/1613924 alleles (AF 6.19608e-07; highest population AF 8.47529e-07 in European non-Finnish). Available population data therefore support rarity, but do not establish the strict absence required for ENIGMA PM2. |

| PM3 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified showing this variant in trans with another BRCA2 pathogenic variant in an individual with a phenotype consistent with BRCA2-related Fanconi anemia, so PM3 cannot be assessed. |

| PM5 | N/A | In the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification, PM5 is defined here for protein-terminating variants in eligible exons. This missense variant does not meet that use case. |

| PP3 | Met | This missense variant lies within the BRCA2 DNA-binding domain, a clinically important functional domain defined by ENIGMA (amino acids 2481-3186). BayesDel is 0.54225, which is above the ENIGMA PP3 threshold of 0.30, and REVEL is also high at 0.931. SpliceAI predicts no significant splice effect (max delta 0.03), so the computational evidence supports a damaging protein effect rather than a splice mechanism. |
