Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
PVS1 Very Strong: the exon 18 frameshift creates a premature stop upstream of the ENIGMA NMD escape boundary.
2
PM5 Strong: ENIGMA Table 4 assigns PM5_Strong (PTC) to genomic premature termination codons in BRCA2 exon 18.
Final determination:
Under ENIGMA BRCA2 Table 3, one Very Strong pathogenic criterion plus at least one Strong pathogenic criterion yields Pathogenic.

Criteria shown when status is available
All criteria require review: For research and educational purposes only.
| Criterion | Status | Rationale | Evidence used |
|---|---|---|---|
| PVS1 | Met | Met, very strong: c.8107dup is an exon 18 frameshift with a premature stop at p.2705, upstream of the VCEP's c.9600 NMD escape boundary. |

| PS1 | N/A | Not applicable: c.8107dup is a frameshift, whereas the VCEP PS1 paths require a predicted missense substitution or a matched splicing event. |

|
| PS2 | N/A | Not applicable: the VCEP says de novo occurrences lack calibrated predictive capacity for BRCA1/2-related cancers and explicitly says not to use PS2. |

|
| PS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: no variant-specific calibrated assay result or pre-assigned PS3 code was found for BRCA2 c.8107dup in the governing ENIGMA sources. |
