ClinGen expert panel — CDH1 VCEP
Likely Pathogenic for CDH1-related diffuse gastric and lobular breast cancer. Applied ACMG criteria (verbatim):
PVS1_Strong PM2_Supporting PS4_Supporting
Curation rationale (ClinGen, verbatim)
The c.2265T>A p.(Arg796Profs*11) variant is predicted to result in a premature stop codon that leads to a truncated protein (disrupting the last 87 amino acid residues of the CDH1 protein), and is located within the nonsense-mediated decay resistance region (downstream of aa 795) upstream of c.2506G>T p.(Glu836*) variant (PVS1_strong). This variant has been reported in at least one family meeting HDGC clinical criteria (PS4_Supporting; PMID: 9537325). The variant is absent in the gnomAD cohort (PM2_Supporting; http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the CDH1 Variant Curation Expert Panel (Variant Interpretation Guidelines Version 3.1): PVS1_Strong, PM2_Supporting, PS4_Supporting.

Predicted loss-of-function is descriptive, not an applied PVS1 code.
Population frequency
No gnomAD frequency available for this variant. This is missing data, not an absence: the variant may or may not be present in gnomAD. Rarity (ACMG PM2) and BA1/BS1 cannot be assessed for it.
