Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
The BRCA2 NM_000059.4:c.7976+24G>A (NP_000050.3:p.?) variant has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 371868), although submission-level classification details were not available in the reviewed record.
2
This variant is present in population databases, including gnomAD v2.1 at 12/250842 alleles with an East Asian grpmax filter allele frequency of 0.00037674 and gnomAD v4.1 at 94/1612498 alleles; the gnomAD v2.1 frequency exceeds the ENIGMA BRCA2 BS1 strong threshold of 0.0001.
3
In silico splicing prediction does not support an abnormal splicing effect, with a SpliceAI maximum delta score of 0.00, consistent with BP4 and BP7 and arguing against PP3.
Final determination:
Likely benign based on one strong benign criterion (BS1) and two supporting benign criteria (BP4, BP7) under the ENIGMA BRCA1/BRCA2 Table 3 combination rules.
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 intronic variant is at c.7976+24, outside the canonical +/-1,2 splice consensus positions and outside the default null-variant categories used for PVS1. No variant-specific RNA study showing a damaging transcript effect was identified, so PVS1 is not met. |

|
| PS1 | Not assessed | No confirmed pathogenic or likely pathogenic comparator with the same demonstrated splicing effect was identified, so PS1 was not assessed. |

| PS2 | N/A | This criterion is not used in the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification. |
cspec
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | No calibrated functional assay result for this specific variant was identified in the reviewed BRCA2 functional evidence sources, so PS3 was not assessed. |
cspec

|
| PS4 | Not assessed | No case-control study or quantitative enrichment data showing a significant excess of this variant in affected individuals were identified, so PS4 was not assessed. |

| PM1 | N/A | This criterion is not applied independently in the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification and is handled through the bioinformatic framework for other variant classes. |
cspec
|
| PM2 | Not met | This variant is present in gnomAD rather than absent from controls. In gnomAD v2.1 it is seen in 12/250842 alleles, so PM2 is not met. |
cspec
gnomad_v2
|
| PM3 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified that this variant occurred in trans with another BRCA2 pathogenic variant in an individual with a phenotype consistent with BRCA2-related Fanconi anemia, so PM3 was not assessed. |
cspec
|
| PM4 | N/A | This criterion is not used in the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification. |
cspec
|
| PM5 | N/A | In the BRCA2 ENIGMA framework, PM5 is repurposed for protein-truncating variants in eligible exons. This intronic non-truncating variant does not meet that use case, so PM5 is not applicable. |

| PM6 | N/A | This criterion is not used in the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification. |
cspec
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | No segregation data were identified for this variant, so PP1 was not assessed. |
cspec
|
| PP2 | N/A | This criterion is not used in the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification. |
cspec
|
| PP3 | Not met | Available computational evidence does not support a splice-altering effect. SpliceAI shows a maximum delta score of 0.00, which is below the ENIGMA BRCA2 PP3 threshold of >=0.20, so PP3 is not met. |
cspec

|
| PP4 | Not assessed | No variant-specific clinical-history likelihood-ratio entry was identified in the reviewed BRCA2 ENIGMA clinical-history resource, so PP4 was not assessed. |

| PP5 | N/A | This criterion is not for use in the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification. |
cspec
|
| BA1 | Not met | The ENIGMA BRCA2 BA1 threshold is a non-founder population filter allele frequency greater than 0.001 in gnomAD v2.1 and/or v3.1. The observed gnomAD v2.1 grpmax FAF is 0.00037674, which is below 0.001, so BA1 is not met. |

| BS1 | Met | This variant is present in gnomAD v2.1 with a highest non-founder population filter allele frequency of 0.00037674 in East Asian samples, which is above the ENIGMA BRCA2 BS1 strong threshold of 0.0001. This supports BS1 at strong strength. |

| BS2 | Not assessed | No qualifying observations in individuals lacking features of BRCA2-related Fanconi anemia were identified for this variant, so BS2 was not assessed. |

|
| BP1 | N/A | BP1 in the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification applies to silent, missense, or in-frame variants outside clinically important domains with no predicted splice impact. This intronic variant is not in that variant class, so BP1 is not applicable. |

|
| BP3 | N/A | This criterion is not used in the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification. |
cspec
|
| BP4 | Met | This intronic variant lies outside the native donor and acceptor +/-1,2 splice sites, and SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact with a maximum delta score of 0.00, which is below the ENIGMA BRCA2 BP4 threshold of <=0.10. This supports BP4 at supporting strength. |

| BP5 | Not assessed | No variant-specific clinical-history likelihood-ratio entry supporting a benign direction was identified in the reviewed BRCA2 ENIGMA clinical-history resource, so BP5 was not assessed. |

| BP6 | N/A | This criterion is not used in the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification. |
cspec
|
| BP7 | Met | This intronic variant is located at +24, which is beyond the conserved donor motif position +7 used in the ENIGMA BRCA2 BP7 rule, and BP4 is met because SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact with a maximum delta score of 0.00. This supports BP7 at supporting strength. |
