Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
NM_002529.3:c.926C>T (p.Pro309Leu) in NTRK1 is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS) under the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 framework.
2
One supporting pathogenic criterion was met: PM2 (absent from gnomAD v2.1 and v4.1 population databases).
3
No benign criteria were met. Population absence does not support BA1 (>1%), BS1 (>0.3%), or BS2 (no homozygotes observed). In silico predictions are mixed (REVEL 0.554 damaging; BayesDel 0.172 neutral; SpliceAI 0.00 no splice effect), preventing application of either PP3 or BP4.
4
Only one supporting-level criterion (PM2) was met, which is insufficient to reach Likely Pathogenic or Likely Benign under the ACMG/AMP 2015 combination rules. The variant remains as Uncertain Significance.
Final determination:
Generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback rules do not meet benign, likely benign, likely pathogenic, or pathogenic combination thresholds, so the variant is classified as Variant of Uncertain Significance.
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 | PVS1 is not applicable to missense variants. NM_002529.3:c.926C>T is a missense change (p.Pro309Leu) and does not fall into the null-variant buckets of nonsense, frameshift, or canonical ±1,2 splice consensus variants required by the ClinGen SVI PVS1 decision framework (PMC6185798). |
pvs1_generic_framework
|
| PS1 | Not met | PS1 requires the same amino acid change (Pro309Leu) to have been previously established as pathogenic. The ClinVar record for this exact variant (VariationID 526728) is classified as Uncertain Significance by a single submitter, not Pathogenic. No independent evidence establishes Pro309Leu as a pathogenic change. |
clinvar
|
| PS2 | N/A | No de novo evidence is available. No parental sequencing data or de novo reports exist in the case materials for NM_002529.3:c.926C>T. |
|
| PS3 | Not met | No functional studies have been performed on NM_002529.3:c.926C>T (p.Pro309Leu). OncoKB reports Unknown Oncogenic Effect with no variant-specific reviewed functional evidence. The single COSMIC entry (COSV62323938, n=1) reflects somatic observation, not experimental functional characterization. No publications with experimental functional data for this variant were identified in the literature pass or among the reviewed papers. |
oncokb
|
| PS4 | Not met | No case-level evidence was identified for this variant. The PS4 screen returned zero qualifying cases. PMIDs 20301726 and 29419974 are GeneReviews overview chapters on NTRK1-related congenital insensitivity to pain — they do not report this specific variant. The single ClinVar submission (SCV000752360, Labcorp/Invitae) does not provide case counts or affected individual data. |

|
| PS5 | N/A | PS5 is not a standard criterion in the ACMG/AMP 2015 variant interpretation framework. There is no applicable evidence pathway for this criterion under the generic ACMG fallback rules. |
generic_acmg_combination_rules
|
| PM1 | Not met | PM1 requires location in a mutational hotspot or well-established critical functional domain without benign variation. Cancerhotspots.org does not identify residue 309 as a statistically significant hotspot. While NTRK1 position 309 lies in the extracellular leucine-rich repeat domain involved in ligand binding, no domain-level mutational constraint data or CSPEC/VCEP domain specification was available to support PM1 application under generic ACMG rules. |
|
| PM2 | Met | NM_002529.3:c.926C>T is absent from gnomAD v2.1 (0/246,210 alleles) and gnomAD v4.1 (0 alleles). Under generic ACMG/AMP rules, absence from population databases at an allele frequency below 0.1% supports PM2 at supporting strength for a missense variant without additional corroborating evidence. |

|
| PM5 | Not met | PM5 requires a different pathogenic missense change at the same amino acid residue (Pro309). No same-residue comparator variants classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic were identified in ClinVar. The automated PM5 candidate harvest returned zero candidates. |
|
| PM6 | N/A | No de novo observations exist for NM_002529.3:c.926C>T. PM6 requires an assumed or confirmed de novo event with no confirmation of paternity and maternity, which is unavailable for this variant. |
|
| PP1 | N/A | No segregation data is available. PP1 requires co-segregation of the variant with disease in multiple affected family members, which has not been assessed for NM_002529.3:c.926C>T. |
|
| PP2 | Not met | PP2 requires a low rate of benign missense variation in the gene with missense variants being a common disease mechanism. While NTRK1 loss-of-function is an established mechanism for congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis (CIPA) and missense variants are observed in CIPA, formal constraint metrics (e.g., gnomAD missense Z-score, HCI prior) were not available for NTRK1 to support application of PP2 under generic ACMG rules. |
|
| PP3 | Not met | PP3 requires multiple lines of computational evidence supporting a deleterious effect. REVEL score is 0.554 (borderline damaging, just above the 0.5 threshold). BayesDel score is 0.172 (neutral-to-benign range). SpliceAI predicts no splice impact (max delta = 0.00). With only one in silico tool suggesting a potentially damaging effect and others indicating neutrality, the evidence does not meet the threshold for multiple lines supporting a deleterious prediction. |

|
| PP4 | N/A | No patient phenotype information was provided in the case materials. PP4 requires the patient's phenotype or family history to be highly specific for a disease with a single genetic etiology. |
|
| PP5 | Not met | PP5 requires a reputable source to have recently reported the variant as pathogenic, with the evidence not available for independent review. The ClinVar classification for NM_002529.3:c.926C>T is Uncertain Significance (VariationID 526728, 1 clinical laboratory, review status: criteria provided, single submitter). This is not a pathogenic assertion and does not meet the 3-star expert panel threshold. The ClinVar-linked PMIDs (20301726, 29419974) are GeneReviews overviews that do not classify this specific variant as pathogenic. |

|
| BA1 | Not met | BA1 requires allele frequency >1% in population databases. NM_002529.3:c.926C>T is absent from gnomAD v2.1 (0/246,210 alleles) and gnomAD v4.1. |

|
| BS2 | Not met | BS2 requires observation in a healthy adult in a homozygous or hemizygous state (or in trans with a pathogenic variant for dominant disorders). NM_002529.3:c.926C>T has zero homozygotes in gnomAD and no observations in trans with a pathogenic variant have been reported. |
gnomad_v2
|
| BS3 | Not met | BS3 requires well-established functional studies showing no damaging effect on protein function or splicing. No functional studies have been performed on NM_002529.3:c.926C>T (p.Pro309Leu). OncoKB reports Unknown Oncogenic Effect with no variant-specific functional evidence. |
oncokb
|
| BS4 | N/A | No segregation data is available. BS4 requires lack of segregation with disease in affected family members. |
|
| BP1 | Not met | BP1 applies when a missense variant occurs in a gene for which only truncating variants are known to cause disease. NTRK1-related congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis (CIPA) is caused by both missense and truncating loss-of-function variants, so BP1 does not apply. |
|
| BP2 | Not met | BP2 requires observation in trans with a pathogenic variant for a fully penetrant dominant disorder, or in cis with a pathogenic variant for a recessive disorder. No phase information is available for NM_002529.3:c.926C>T. |
|
| BP4 | Not met | BP4 requires multiple lines of computational evidence to suggest no impact on the gene or gene product. REVEL score is 0.554 (damaging prediction, above 0.5 threshold), which contradicts a no-impact prediction. BayesDel score is 0.172 (neutral-tending but not strongly benign), and SpliceAI predicts no splice effect (max delta = 0.00). The REVEL result alone prevents BP4 from being met, as there is not consensus among computational tools suggesting a benign effect. |

|
| BP5 | N/A | BP5 requires the variant to be found in a case with an alternate molecular basis for disease. No such data is available in the case materials. |
|
| BP6 | Not met | BP6 requires a reputable source to report the variant as benign with evidence not available for independent review. The ClinVar classification for NM_002529.3:c.926C>T is Uncertain Significance (VariationID 526728, 1 submitter), not benign. No expert panel has classified this variant as benign. |
clinvar
|
| BP7 | N/A | BP7 applies to synonymous variants with no predicted splice impact. NM_002529.3:c.926C>T is a missense variant (p.Pro309Leu), not synonymous. |
