Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The BRCA2 c.8351G>A p.(Arg2784Gln) variant has long been classified as a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) due to conflicting evidence used in variant classification. This study aims to clarify its pathogenicity and associated risks for breast and ovarian cancer. METHODS: This study was conducted by the international Evidence-based Network for the Interpretation of Germline Mutant Alleles...
