gene-specific framework lacked a usable explicit final combination framework, so generic ACMG/AMP 2015 final-combination rules were applied as fallback; applied criteria: PM2 supporting, BP4 supporting; combination = 1 supporting + 1 supporting benign, which maps to VUS because the evidence is conflicting.
Classification rationale
PM2 BP4 VUS
SETBP1 c.1313C>A

The SETBP1 c.1313C>A (p.Ala438Asp) variant has not been reported in ClinVar, and no variant-specific reviewed functional evidence was identified in OncoKB.1 This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, so the observed population frequency is 0 and is below the 0.1% threshold used for PM2 support.2 Computational evidence does not support a damaging effect: REVEL is 0.054, BayesDel is -0.44775, and SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact with a maximum delta score of 0.00, supporting BP4 rather than PP3.3

Strength Supporting Moderate Strong Very strong
PM2 supporting Pathogenic
This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, so the observed population frequency is 0 and is below the PM2 threshold of 0.1% for rare-variant support.

BP4 supporting Benign
Computational evidence supports no damaging effect. REVEL is 0.054, BayesDel is -0.44775, and SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact with a maximum delta score of 0.00, which together support a benign computational interpretation.

Pathogenic
PVS1 This variant is a missense substitution, p.(Ala438Asp), and does not fall within the generic PVS1 null-variant categories of nonsense, frameshift, or canonical +/-1,2 splice variants.
PS1 No evidence was identified showing that this nucleotide change results in the same amino acid substitution as a previously established pathogenic variant.
PS2 No confirmed de novo occurrence with parental confirmation was identified for this variant.
PS3 No published functional study directly testing p.(Ala438Asp) was identified, so available evidence does not support a well-established damaging functional effect for this specific variant.
PS4 No case series, odds ratio, or count of independent affected individuals was identified for this variant, so enrichment in affected individuals has not been established.
PM1 This variant was not identified in a statistically significant hotspot, and no validated critical functional domain without benign variation was established at residue Ala438 from the available evidence.
PM3 No evidence was identified showing this variant in trans with a pathogenic variant in an affected individual.
PM4 This variant is a single amino acid substitution and does not change protein length or create an in-frame insertion or deletion.
PM5 No evidence was identified showing a different pathogenic missense substitution at the same residue, Ala438.
PM6 No presumed de novo occurrence without full parental confirmation was identified for this variant.
PP1 No segregation data were identified for this variant in affected family members.
PP2 Available evidence does not establish that pathogenic missense variation is a sufficiently predominant disease mechanism across SETBP1 to apply PP2 to this non-hotspot missense change.
PP3 Available computational evidence does not support a damaging effect.
PP4 No phenotype information was provided that is sufficiently specific for a single genetic etiology to support PP4.
PP5 No reputable source classification supporting pathogenicity was identified for this variant.
Benign
BA1 This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, so the observed population frequency is 0 and is below the BA1 threshold of 1%.
BS1 This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, so the observed population frequency is 0 and is below the BS1 threshold of 0.3%.
BS2 No evidence was identified showing this variant in healthy adult individuals for a condition expected to be fully penetrant at an early age.
BS3 No well-established functional study showing a normal or benign effect for p.(Ala438Asp) was identified.
BS4 No family data were identified showing lack of segregation between this variant and disease.
BP2 No phase information was identified showing this variant in trans with a pathogenic variant for a dominant disorder or in cis with a pathogenic variant.
BP3 No evidence was identified showing that this variant lies within a repetitive region without a known function.
BP5 No alternate molecular diagnosis or other established cause was provided to explain the phenotype independently of this variant.
BP6 No reputable source classification supporting benignity was identified for this variant.

Functional / OncoKB screenshot
Functional Unknown Oncogenic Effect
OncoKB did not identify variant-specific reviewed functional evidence for this variant; gene-level curated context is available for reviewer follow-up. SETBP1, an epigenetic remodeling protein, is frequently altered by mutation in a range of hematopoietic malignancies.
