Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
The CDH1 NM_004360.5:c.1239C>T (p.Tyr413=, p.Y413=) variant has not been observed in COSMIC and has been reported in ClinVar predominantly as benign or likely benign.
2
This variant is present in gnomAD above the CDH1 BS1 threshold of 0.1%, reaching 0.11215% in African/African American individuals in gnomAD v2.1 and 0.16258% in African/African American individuals in gnomAD v4.1, but it remains below the BA1 threshold of 0.2%.
3
In gnomAD v4.1, this variant is also observed in the homozygous state in 3 individuals, supporting BP2 under the CDH1 specification.
4
In silico splicing evidence does not support a splice-altering effect, with SpliceAI showing a maximum delta score of 0.01, which is consistent with applying BP7 for this synonymous internal exonic variant and does not support PP3.
Final determination:
Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback rules support a Likely Benign classification because either one strong benign criterion plus one supporting benign criterion, or at least two supporting benign criteria, are present.

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 synonymous CDH1 variant does not fall into the CDH1 or generic PVS1 null-variant categories, and available evidence does not support loss of function through a canonical splice-site mechanism. |

| BP7 | Met | This is a synonymous variant, NM_004360.5:c.1239C>T (p.Tyr413=), located well within exon 9 rather than near the splice junction, and SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact with a maximum delta score of 0.01. This meets the CDH1 BP7 rule for synonymous variants outside the specified splice-region window. |
