Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
Benign: BA1 is stand-alone because the African/African American gnomAD v4.1 allele frequency is 0.0131239.
2
Benign: BS1 is strong because the African/African American gnomAD v4.1 allele frequency is 0.0131239 with 935 variant alleles.
3
Benign: BS2 is supporting because gnomAD v4.1 reports six homozygous observations without clinical information.
Final determination: The DICER1 VCEP Version 1.4 point-based framework assigns Benign at a total score of -7 or below; BA1 (-8), BS1 (-4), and BS2 (-1) total -13.
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 Not applicable: c.1510-4dup is intronic at -4, outside the DICER1 VCEP PVS1 scope of nonsense/frameshift and canonical +/-1 or +/-2 splice variants.
cspec vcep_pvs1_decisiontree spliceai
PS1 Not assessed Not assessed: no pathogenic DICER1 VCEP comparator at the same nucleotide or amino-acid change is documented for c.1510-4dupT.
cspec spliceai
PS2 Not assessed Not assessed: no documented parental testing or confirmed de novo observation is available to calculate the DICER1 VCEP PS2 point total.
cspec
PS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no variant-specific RNA or cleavage assay with validated controls and quantitative functional result is available for c.1510-4dupT.
cspec
PS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no phenotype-point total or case-control enrichment result is available for NM_177438.3:c.1510-4dup.
cspec
PM1 N/A Not applicable: c.1510-4dupT is intronic with protein consequence p.?, not a missense variant in an approved DICER1 critical domain.
cspec
PM2 Not met Not met: gnomAD v4.1 overall AF 0.00142555 is far above the DICER1 VCEP PM2 threshold of <0.000005, with 2,181 observed alleles.
cspec gnomad_v4 gnomad_v2
PM3 N/A Not applicable: the DICER1 VCEP explicitly designates PM3 as not applicable for this autosomal-dominant disorder.
cspec
PM4 N/A Not applicable: c.1510-4dup is intronic with protein consequence p.?, not an in-frame coding indel eligible for the DICER1 VCEP PM4 rule.
cspec
PM5 N/A Not applicable: c.1510-4dupT is intronic with protein consequence p.?, so no same-residue missense comparison can be made.
cspec pm5_candidates
PM6 N/A Not applicable: the DICER1 VCEP explicitly directs reviewers to use PS2 instead of PM6 for de novo evidence.
cspec
PP1 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected relatives or documented segregation data are available to establish even the minimum 3–4 meioses required for PP1 Supporting.
cspec
PP2 N/A Not applicable: the DICER1 VCEP marks PP2 not applicable, and c.1510-4dupT is intronic rather than missense.
cspec
PP3 Not assessed Not assessed: SpliceAI max delta 0.016 is below PP3 thresholds, but the DICER1 rule requires concordant MaxEntScan, which is unavailable.
cspec spliceai
PP4 Not assessed Not assessed: COSMIC reports 2 somatic occurrences, but no qualifying RNase IIIb second-hit and retention data are provided.
cspec
PP5 N/A Not applicable: the DICER1 VCEP excludes PP5, and ClinVar has 0 expert-panel submissions for this exact variant.
cspec clinvar
BA1 Met Met: gnomAD v4.1 African/African American AF 0.0131239 exceeds the DICER1 VCEP BA1 threshold of >0.003 with 935/71,244 alleles.
cspec gnomad_v4
BS1 Met Met, strong: gnomAD v4.1 African/African American AF 0.0131239 exceeds the DICER1 VCEP BS1 threshold of >0.0003 with 935/71,244 alleles.
cspec gnomad_v4
BS2 Met Met, supporting: gnomAD v4.1 reports 6 homozygotes, meeting the DICER1 VCEP requirement of at least 2 homozygous observations without clinical information.
cspec gnomad_v4
BS3 Not assessed Not assessed: no variant-specific RNA or cleavage assay with replication, validated controls, and demonstrated normal function is available for c.1510-4dupT.
cspec
BS4 Not assessed Not assessed: no phenotype-positive genotype-negative relatives or documented non-segregation observation is available for the DICER1 BS4 rule.
cspec
BP1 N/A Not applicable: the DICER1 VCEP marks BP1 not applicable, and c.1510-4dupT is intronic rather than missense.
cspec
BP2 Not assessed Not assessed: no affected-proband co-occurrence or phase evidence documents the VCEP threshold of one trans observation or three cis/unknown observations.
cspec
BP3 N/A Not applicable: the DICER1 VCEP Version 1.4 explicitly designates BP3 as not applicable, regardless of this intronic duplication's repeat context.
cspec
BP4 Not assessed Not assessed: SpliceAI max delta 0.016 is below the BP4 threshold, but the DICER1 rule requires concordant MaxEntScan, which is unavailable.
cspec spliceai
BP5 N/A Not applicable: the DICER1 VCEP Version 1.4 explicitly excludes BP5 for this gene framework.
cspec
BP6 N/A Not applicable: the DICER1 VCEP excludes BP6, and ClinVar has 0 expert-panel submissions for this exact variant.
cspec clinvar
BP7 N/A Not applicable: c.1510-4dup is an intronic splice-region variant, not a synonymous coding variant, so BP7 is outside scope.
