Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
BP4 (Supporting): SpliceAI max delta 0.024, below the 0.1 threshold - the intronic variant is not predicted to disrupt splicing.
2
Overall: VUS - under generic ACMG/AMP 2015 rules, a single supporting benign criterion does not reach Likely Benign.
Final determination:
Under the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 fallback, one supporting benign criterion alone does not meet any benign, likely benign, likely pathogenic, or pathogenic combination threshold; therefore the classification is VUS.
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 | Not met: this intronic variant lies 17 bases upstream of the exon boundary with no predicted null consequence (SpliceAI max delta 0.024). |

spliceai
|
| PS1 | N/A | Not applicable: PS1 requires a missense change at the protein level, and this intronic variant has no amino-acid consequence (p.?). |
|
| PS2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no proband phenotype, parental genotypes, or validated de novo status was available to evaluate PS2. |
|
| PS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no variant-specific functional assay was available; the SpliceAI result is computational prediction only. |
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no case-control or cohort-enrichment evidence for this exact variant was available. |
PMID:25356965
PMID:35802134
|
| PM1 | N/A | Not applicable: PM1 evaluates missense variants in critical domains, and this intronic variant has no protein residue. |
|
| PM2 | Not met | Not met: the variant is present in gnomAD v2.1, v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada, so it is not absent from population databases. |
gnomad_v2

|
| PM3 | N/A | Not applicable: PM3 is a recessive-disorder criterion, and RB1 retinoblastoma is autosomal dominant. |
PMID:35802134
|
| PM4 | Not met | Not met: this intronic single-nucleotide variant produces no protein-length change (p.?), unlike the in-frame indels PM4 targets. |
pvs1_variant_assessment
spliceai
|
| PM5 | N/A | Not applicable: PM5 requires a pathogenic missense at the same amino-acid residue, and this intronic variant has none. |
|
| PM6 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no case report or family study established the variant as apparently de novo. |
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no affected or unaffected relatives with informative segregation were documented. |
|
| PP2 | N/A | Not applicable: PP2 is a missense criterion, and this intronic variant produces no missense substitution. |
|
| PP3 | Not met | Not met: SpliceAI max delta 0.024 falls below the 0.2 PP3 threshold. |

|
| PP4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no proband phenotype indicating high specificity for RB1-related disease was available. |
|
| PP5 | Not met | Not met: ClinVar holds only non-expert single-submitter Uncertain and Likely benign assertions, with no expert-panel submission. |

|
| BA1 | Not met | Not met: maximum observed allele frequency is 0.04358% (gnomAD-Canada), far below the 5% BA1 threshold. |

| BS1 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no RB1-specific or disease-derived maximum credible allele frequency was available to test against the observed 0.04358%. |

|
| BS2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no homozygotes are reported, and population records do not confirm carriers are healthy adults. |

|
| BS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no variant-specific functional assay demonstrating preserved RB1 function was available. |
|
| BS4 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no confirmed non-carrier relatives were documented for non-segregation evaluation. |
|
| BP1 | N/A | Not applicable: BP1 is a missense criterion, and this intronic variant has no amino-acid substitution to evaluate. |
|
| BP2 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no second RB1 pathogenic variant or phase information was available for the trans/cis evaluation. |
PMID:35802134
|
| BP3 | Not met | Not met: the variant is an intronic SNV, not an in-frame indel in a repetitive region. |
pvs1_variant_assessment
|
| BP4 | Met | Met (supporting): SpliceAI max delta 0.024 is below the 0.1 BP4 threshold, predicting no splice disruption. |

generic_acmg_combination_rules
|
| BP5 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no affected individual with this variant plus a separate explanatory molecular diagnosis was documented. |
|
| BP6 | Not met | Not met: ClinVar shows no expert-panel submission; the non-expert Likely benign assertion alone cannot trigger BP6. |
clinvar
|
| BP7 | N/A | Not applicable: BP7 covers synonymous coding variants; this intronic variant's splicing evidence was already applied as BP4. |
