Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
NM_000546.6:c.919+4A>G is an intronic variant at the +4 position of intron 8 in TP53, evaluated under the ClinGen TP53 VCEP Specifications v2.4.0. The variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and v4.1, supporting PM2_Supporting.
2
SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (max delta score 0.00). As an intronic variant outside the ±1,2 canonical splice positions with SpliceAI ≤0.1, BP4_Supporting is met.
3
PVS1 is not applicable as the variant lies outside the canonical ±1,2 splice donor/acceptor positions addressed by the VCEP PVS1 flowchart. PS3/BS3 functional codes are not applicable as they address missense variants and small in-frame deletions only. The variant is not located in a VCEP-specified mutational hotspot and has no amino acid change, so PM1 and PM5 are not applicable.
4
With one pathogenic supporting code (PM2_Supporting, +1 point) and one benign supporting code (BP4_Supporting, -1 point), the total point value is 0. Under the Tavtigian point-based system adopted by the TP53 VCEP v2.4.0, a score of 0 falls in the range of Uncertain Significance (-1 to 5 points).
Final determination:
Tavtigian et.al., 2020 - Bayesian adaptation of Richards et.al., 2015 v2.4.0 point-based framework yields a total score of 0, which maps to VUS under the specified Tavtigian-style ranges.
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 | N/A | NM_000546.6:c.919+4A>G is an intronic variant at the +4 position, which is outside the canonical ±1,2 splice consensus. The TP53 VCEP PVS1 flowchart applies to canonical splice sites (±1,2 positions) only. SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (max delta 0.00). PVS1 is not applicable to non-canonical intronic variants under the VCEP framework. |

|
| PS1 | Not assessed | No other nucleotide substitutions at the c.919+4 position have been classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic under the TP53 VCEP specifications. The VCEP PS1 rule requires a different nucleotide change at the same position previously determined to be pathogenic following VCEP specifications. |
cspec
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | No de novo observations for NM_000546.6:c.919+4A>G were identified in the available literature. The VCEP PS2 rule requires proband points tallied using the LFS cancer scoring table, which requires proband-level clinical data. |
|
| PS3 | N/A | The TP53 VCEP functional assay criteria (PS3/BS3) apply to missense variants and small in-frame deletions evaluated through protein function assays (Kato, Funk, Giacomelli, Kotler, Kawaguchi). NM_000546.6:c.919+4A>G is an intronic variant that does not alter an amino acid and is not covered by the VCEP functional assay framework. |

| PS4 | Not assessed | No proband data with Li-Fraumeni syndrome-associated cancers were available for NM_000546.6:c.919+4A>G. The VCEP PS4 rule requires tallying proband cancer points (strongly associated cancers: 4 points; moderately associated: 2 points) against strength thresholds (Supporting: 1-1.5, Moderate: 2-3.5, Strong: 4-7.5, Very Strong: ≥8). |

| PS5 | N/A | PS5 is not defined in the ClinGen TP53 VCEP Specifications v2.4.0. This criterion is not available for use under the governing framework. |
cspec
|
| PM1 | N/A | The TP53 VCEP PM1 rule applies to missense variants within specified hotspot codons (175, 245, 248, 249, 273, 282) or missense variants with ≥10 somatic occurrences at the same amino acid change in cancerhotspots.org. NM_000546.6:c.919+4A>G is an intronic variant with no amino acid change. |
cspec
|
| PM2 | Met | NM_000546.6:c.919+4A>G is absent from gnomAD v2.1 (exomes) and gnomAD v4.1 (exomes/genomes), meeting the TP53 VCEP PM2_Supporting threshold of allele frequency <0.00003 (0.003%). |

| PM5 | N/A | The TP53 VCEP PM5 rule applies to missense variants at an amino acid residue where other missense variants have been determined to be pathogenic/likely pathogenic. NM_000546.6:c.919+4A>G is an intronic variant with no amino acid change, and the PM5 candidate search confirmed no eligible comparator variants. |

| PP1 | Not assessed | No cosegregation data were available for NM_000546.6:c.919+4A>G. The VCEP PP1 rule requires cosegregation observed in ≥3 meioses (Supporting), 5-6 meioses (Moderate), or ≥7 meioses (Strong) across one or more families. |
