الوصف: Here we report the results of a retrospective germline analysis of 6941 individuals fulfilling the criteria necessary for genetic testing of hereditary breast- and ovarian cancer (HBOC) according to the German S3 or AGO Guidelines. Genetic testing was performed by next-generation sequencing using 123 cancer-associated genes based on the Illumina TruSight® Cancer Sequencing Panel. In 1431 of 6941 cases (20.6%) at least one variant was reported (ACMG/AMP classes 3–5). Of those 56.3% (n = 806) were class 4 or 5 and 43.7% (n = 625) were a class 3 (VUS). We defined a 14 gene HBOC core gene panel and compared this to a national and different internationally recommended gene panels (German Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Consortium HBOC Consortium, ClinGen expert Panel, Genomics England PanelsApp) in regard of diagnostic yield, revealing a diagnostic range of pathogenic variants (class 4/5) from 7.8 to 11.6% depending on the panel evaluated. With the 14 HBOC core gene panel having a diagnostic yield of pathogenic variants (class 4/5) of 10.8%. Additionally, 66 (1%) pathogenic variants (ACMG/AMP class 4 or 5) were found in genes outside the 14 HBOC core gene set (secondary findings) that would have been missed with the restriction to the analysis of HBOC genes. Furthermore, we evaluated a workflow for a periodic re-evaluation of variants of uncertain clinical significance (VUS) for the improvement of clinical validity of germline genetic testing.
