The recorded framework is ClinGen DICER1 VCEP v1.4. The criteria and strengths shown below come from the saved assessment; this page does not recalculate the classification.
The applied criteria and their strengths are shown as assessed under the stated framework.
No pathogenic criterion marked as applied in the recorded assessment.
The East Asian population allele frequency of 0.098% (gnomAD v2.1, 18/18,382 alleles) and 0.198% (gnomAD v4.1, 89/44,880 alleles) exceeds the DICER1 VCEP BS1 threshold of >0.03%. The subpopulation has >2,000 alleles tested and >5 alleles present, satisfying all BS1 requirements at strong strength.
REVEL score of 0.109 is well below the DICER1 VCEP BP4 threshold of <0.500, and SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (max delta score 0.09). The agreement of multiple in silico predictors supports a benign interpretation.
DICER1 VCEP v1.4 Tavtigian point-based framework applied to adjudicated criteria: BS1_Strong (-4 points) + BP4_Supporting (-1 point) = -5 points. Per the VCEP point rules, -5 falls within the Likely Benign range (>= -6 and <= -2). The special override for -1 (>=2 benign codes with only PM2_Supporting pathogenic) does not apply since the score is -5.

3 Likely benign · 1 Uncertain significance. ClinVar API review status: criteria provided, conflicting classifications.
OncoKB did not identify variant-specific reviewed functional evidence for this variant; gene-level curated context is available for reviewer follow-up. DICER1, an endoribonuclease, is altered in various cancer types.
This variant has previously been reported in somatic cancers (COSMIC; COSV58626859, n = 3 times).
This variant does not lie in a statistically significant hotspot.

NM_177438.2:c.3334A>G (p.Asn1112Asp) is a missense variant in exon 21 of DICER1, located outside the RNase IIIb catalytic domain (p.Y1682-p.S1846) and not at a metal ion-binding residue.
This variant is present in gnomAD at a frequency exceeding the DICER1 VCEP threshold for rarity. In the East Asian population, the allele frequency is 0.098% (gnomAD v2.1, 18/18,382 alleles) and 0.198% (gnomAD v4.1, 89/44,880 alleles), meeting BS1 at strong strength (VCEP threshold: >0.03%).
Computational predictions uniformly support a benign interpretation: REVEL score 0.109 (below BP4 threshold of <0.500), SpliceAI max delta 0.09 (no splicing impact), and BayesDel score -0.562 (benign). BP4 is met at supporting strength.
In ClinVar, this variant has been classified as Likely benign by three clinical laboratories (Ambry Genetics, Labcorp/Invitae, Illumina) and as Uncertain significance by one (GeneDx). No expert panel has reviewed this variant. The ITMI submission derived from a reference population cohort (Bodian et al. 2014), consistent with a benign population variant.
No functional studies, segregation data, de novo observations, or tumor testing data are available for this variant. No pathogenic comparator variants exist at codon 1112 for PM5 application. The variant falls outside characterized functional domains, so PM1 does not apply.
Applying the DICER1 VCEP v1.4 Tavtigian point-based classification framework: BS1_Strong (-4 points) + BP4_Supporting (-1 point) = -5 points. This falls within the Likely Benign range (>= -6 and <= -2).
Final classification: Likely Benign.
