Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
The BRCA2 c.1924_1925insGG (p.(Ser642TrpfsTer3), p.(S642Wfs*3)) variant has not been observed in somatic cancers in COSMIC and has not been reported in ClinVar.
2
This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, supporting rarity in population databases.
3
This early frameshift predicts premature truncation of BRCA2, and the ENIGMA BRCA2 specification supports full PVS1 weight with additional PM5_Strong (PTC) applicability for truncating variants in exon 11.
4
SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant (max delta score 0.01), which is below the ENIGMA PP3 splice threshold of 0.2 and supports a truncating rather than splice-altering mechanism.
Final determination:
Pathogenic based on 1 Very Strong pathogenic criterion and 1 Strong pathogenic criterion (PVS1_VeryStrong plus PM5_Strong) 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 | Met | This variant is a frameshift change, NM_000059.4:c.1924_1925insGG, predicted to cause p.(Ser642TrpfsTer3) [p.(S642Wfs*3)] with truncation very early in BRCA2. The ENIGMA BRCA2 specification recognizes loss of function as an established disease mechanism, and the exon-level Table 4 assigns exon 11 truncating variants full PVS1 weight; available SpliceAI data do not suggest an alternative splice-driven explanation (max delta score 0.01). |

|
| PS1 | Not met | Available evidence does not show that this variant has the same amino acid change or the same established splice effect as a previously classified pathogenic or likely pathogenic comparator. This is a truncating frameshift variant, so the BRCA2 PS1 rules were not satisfied. |

|
| PS2 | N/A | This criterion is not applicable in the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification for this review context. |
cspec
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | No variant-specific calibrated functional study result for NM_000059.4:c.1924_1925insGG was identified in the ENIGMA BRCA2 functional-assay table. Curated literature resources point to BRCA2 loss-of-function biology in general, but the available evidence does not provide a criterion-ready PS3 assignment for this exact allele. |

| PS4 | Not assessed | No case-control evidence or quantified excess of this variant in affected individuals versus controls was identified. Available evidence is insufficient to show a statistically significant increase in prevalence required for PS4. |

| PM1 | N/A | This criterion is not applicable in the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification for this review context. |
cspec
|
| PM2 | Not assessed | This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, which is consistent with rarity in population databases. However, the BRCA2 ENIGMA PM2 rule requires absence in the specified non-cancer datasets with adequate local read depth, and the available evidence reviewed here did not document the required coverage threshold. |

| PM3 | Not assessed | No evidence was identified that this variant has been observed in trans with another pathogenic BRCA2 variant in an individual with a phenotype consistent with BRCA2-related Fanconi anemia. Available evidence does not support PM3 at this time. |
cspec
|
| PM4 | N/A | This criterion is not applicable in the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification for this review context. |
cspec
|
| PM5 | Met | This variant is a protein-truncating variant in BRCA2 exon 11. In the ENIGMA BRCA2 specification, PM5 is repurposed for truncating variants, and Table 4 shows that exon 11 is eligible for PM5_Strong (PTC), meaning a different proven pathogenic truncating variant has been established in this exon and additional pathogenic weight is allowed for another exon 11 truncating variant. |

| PP1 | Not assessed | No segregation data were identified for this variant. Available evidence does not show co-segregation with disease in affected family members, so PP1 cannot be applied. |

| PP2 | N/A | This criterion is not applicable in the BRCA2 ENIGMA specification for this review context. |
cspec
|
| PP3 | Not met | Available computational evidence does not support PP3 under the BRCA2 ENIGMA rules. SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact with a max delta score of 0.01, which is below the PP3 splice threshold of 0.2, and this frameshift variant is not a missense or in-frame change within a domain eligible for BayesDel-based PP3 use. |

| BA1 | Not met | This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1 and therefore is far below the BRCA2 ENIGMA BA1 threshold of filter allele frequency greater than 0.1%. BA1 is not met. |

| BS3 | Not assessed | No variant-specific calibrated benign functional study result for NM_000059.4:c.1924_1925insGG was identified in the ENIGMA BRCA2 functional-assay table. Available evidence does not support BS3. |

Although SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact with a max delta score of 0.01, BP4 is restricted to eligible missense, in-frame, silent, or intronic variants, and this allele is a truncating frameshift variant. |
