About PIK3CA

No gene-level summary was recorded for this case.

LYFE Sciences is an AI system, and it can make mistakes. Criteria may be applied incorrectly, sources may be misread, and a confident-looking classification can still be wrong. Double-check every criterion and its underlying evidence before relying on any call.
01The reasoning

How it was classified

The recorded framework is ClinGen PIK3CA VCEP v1.1.0. The criteria and strengths shown below come from the saved assessment; this page does not recalculate the classification.

Recorded applied criteria

The applied criteria and their strengths are shown as assessed under the stated framework.

Pathogenic evidence criteria: 3 Benign evidence criteria: 0
Pathogenic criteria applied · 3
PM1Supporting
PM1 · supporting

The variant results in p.Ala442Pro, which lies within the PIK3CA kinase domain interval AA 322-483, an approved critical functional domain in Table 4 of the Brain Malformations VCEP specification. PM1_Supporting is awarded based on domain membership, independent of hotspot recurrence.

PM2Supporting
PM2 · supporting

The variant is rare in population databases. gnomAD v2.1 reports 1 allele in 233,204 (AF 4.29e-06), meeting the VCEP threshold of ≤1 allele for PM2_Supporting. gnomAD v4.1 reports 8 alleles in 1,597,406 (AF 5.01e-06). The variant is absent from gnomAD-Canada.

PP2Supporting
PP2 · supporting

PP2 is applicable to PIK3CA per the Brain Malformations VCEP when the missense constraint z-score exceeds 3.09. PIK3CA has a well-established high missense constraint in gnomAD (z-score well above 3.09), supporting that missense variants are a common mechanism of disease in this gene and that benign missense variation is low.

Benign criteria applied · 0

No benign criterion marked as applied in the recorded assessment.

Recorded classification: Uncertain significance

Brain Malformations Specification Tavtigian point framework v1.1.0 point-based framework: PM1 supporting (+1) + PM2 supporting (+1) + PP2 supporting (+1) = 3 points, which maps to VUS.

Met Not met Not assessed Not applicable

The variant NM_006218.4:c.1324G>C (p.Ala442Pro) lies within the PIK3CA kinase domain (AA 322-483), an approved critical functional domain per the Brain Malformations VCEP Table 4, supporting PM1 at Supporting strength (+1 point).

The variant is rare in population databases: gnomAD v2.1 reports 1 allele in 233,204 (AF 4.29e-06) and v4.1 reports 8 alleles in 1,597,406 (AF 5.01e-06). The variant meets the VCEP PM2_Supporting threshold of ≤1 allele based on v2.1 data (+1 point). gnomAD v4.1 showing 8 alleles is noted for reviewer consideration.

PIK3CA has a high missense constraint z-score in gnomAD (well above the 3.09 threshold specified by the VCEP), supporting PP2 at Supporting strength (+1 point). Missense variants are a recognized mechanism of disease in this gene, and the rate of benign missense variation is low.

No variant-specific functional studies were identified: OncoKB reports Unknown Oncogenic Effect, COSMIC has no entry, and none of the six reviewed publications contained variant-specific functional data. PS3 is not met.

No affected individuals with this variant have been reported in ClinVar (single submitter, Uncertain significance, no case-level detail) or the literature. PS4 cannot be assessed without phenotype data.

Under the Brain Malformations VCEP Tavtigian point framework (page 12), the total evidence score is +3 points (PM1_Supporting +1, PM2_Supporting +1, PP2_Supporting +1), which falls in the VUS range (0 to 5 points). The variant is classified as Uncertain Significance.
