Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
Pathogenic: PVS1 very strong applies to the exon 23 truncating frameshift upstream of the ENIGMA NMD-escape threshold.
2
Pathogenic: PM3 moderate is supported by the exact variant in trans with a pathogenic BRCA2 variant in a Fanconi anemia case.
3
Pathogenic: PM5 strong is assigned by ENIGMA for protein-termination variants in BRCA2 exon 23.
4
Pathogenic: PP4 supporting is met by the exact-variant clinical-history likelihood ratio of 2.955961503957612.
5
Pathogenic: PP5 supporting is recorded as met in the authoritative adjudicated criteria assessment.
Final determination:
Under the ClinGen ENIGMA BRCA2 v1.2 Table 3 rules, one Very Strong pathogenic criterion plus at least one Moderate 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 at very strong: BRCA2 E23 Table 4 assigns PVS1, and c.9097 is upstream of the VCEP c.9600 NMD-escape threshold. |

| PS3 | Not assessed | Not assessed: the exact variant lacks a calibrated Table 9 assay, and the available compound-heterozygous fibroblast study does not isolate BRCA2 protein-function impact. |
