Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
The PIK3CA c.335T>C (p.Ile112Thr, p.I112T) variant has not been reported in ClinVar.
2
This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, supporting PM2_Supporting under the Brain Malformations VCEP rule for variants observed in no more than 1 person.
3
The p.Ile112Thr change affects residue 112, which is outside the PIK3CA Table 4 approved kinase-domain intervals of amino acids 322-483 and 797-1068, so PM1 is not met.
4
Computational data show no predicted splice impact by SpliceAI (max delta score 0.00), with REVEL 0.39 and BayesDel 0.238394, but under this VCEP PP3 is not applicable and BP4 is restricted to synonymous, intronic, or UTR variants.
Final determination:
Brain Malformations Specification Tavtigian point framework v1.1.0 point-based framework yields a total score of 1, which maps to VUS under the specified Tavtigian-style ranges.

Criteria shown when status is available
All criteria require review: For research and educational purposes only.
| Criterion | Status | Rationale | Evidence used |
|---|---|---|---|
| PS1 | Not assessed | No previously established pathogenic variant producing the same amino acid change was identified in the available sources, so PS1 could not be assessed. |
clinvar
|
| BS4 | N/A | BS4 is not applicable under the Brain Malformations VCEP framework for this gene-disease context. |
cspec
|
| BS2 | Not met | This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, so there are 0 observed homozygotes, which is below the VCEP BS2 threshold of at least 3 homozygotes or at least 3 well-phenotyped unaffected heterozygous family members. |

| PS2 | Not assessed | No confirmed de novo result, parental testing, or tissue mosaicism data were identified for this variant, so PS2 could not be assessed. |

cspec
|
| PP3 | N/A | PP3 is not applicable under the Brain Malformations VCEP framework for this gene-disease context. Available computational results include SpliceAI max delta score 0.00, REVEL 0.39, and BayesDel 0.238394, but these do not create a PP3 call when the VCEP has marked PP3 not applicable. |

| PM1 | Not met | The p.Ile112Thr change affects residue 112, which is outside the PIK3CA Table 4 approved kinase-domain intervals of amino acids 322-483 and 797-1068, so PM1 is not met. Available hotspot evidence was marked uncertain and does not establish a validated hotspot at codon 112. |

|
| PS4 | Not met | This variant meets PM2_Supporting because it is absent from gnomAD, but no affected-case phenotype point data were identified to reach the VCEP PS4 thresholds of at least 0.5 points for supporting evidence. |

|
| PVS1 | N/A | PVS1 is not applicable under the Brain Malformations VCEP framework for PIK3CA because the disease mechanism is gain of function, and this variant is also a missense change rather than a canonical null variant. |

| PP5 | N/A | PP5 is not applicable under the Brain Malformations VCEP framework for this gene-disease context. |

|
| BP7 | N/A | BP7 is not applicable because this is a missense variant, whereas the VCEP limits BP7 to synonymous, non-canonical intronic, or UTR variants. |
cspec

|
| BP5 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified showing an alternate molecular explanation for the reported phenotype in a person carrying this variant, so BP5 could not be assessed. |
cspec
clinvar
|
| BP4 | N/A | BP4 is not applicable because this is a missense variant, whereas the VCEP restricts BP4 to synonymous, non-canonical intronic, or UTR variants assessed for lack of splice impact. SpliceAI predicts no splice effect with a max delta score of 0.00, but that does not create a BP4 call for this missense change. |

| BP3 | N/A | BP3 is not applicable under the Brain Malformations VCEP framework for this gene-disease context. |
cspec
|
| BP2 | Not assessed | No phase data were identified showing this variant in cis or trans with a known pathogenic PIK3CA variant, so BP2 could not be assessed. |

| PP2 | Not assessed | PP2 may be applicable for PIK3CA missense variants when the missense constraint z-score is greater than 3.09, but the required gene-level constraint value was not identified in the available evidence, so PP2 could not be assessed. |

| PP1 | N/A | PP1 is not applicable under the Brain Malformations VCEP framework for this gene-disease context. |
cspec

| PM5 | Not assessed | No validated same-residue pathogenic comparator variant was identified for codon 112, so PM5 could not be assessed from the available evidence. |
