Zornitza Stark changed review comment from: Assessed as 'strong actionability' in paediatric patients by ClinGen. FTAAD is a rare genetic vascular disease characterized by the familial occurrence of thoracic aortic aneurysm, dissection, or dilatation affecting one or more aortic segments (aortic root, ascending aorta, arch, or descending aorta). Variable age of clinical presentation. Prophylactic surgical repair of the aorta is recommended at 4.5-5.0 cm for patients with pathogenic variants in MYH11, SMAD3, and ACTA2 and at 4.0-4.5 cm for patients with pathogenic variants in TGFBR1 or TGFBR2. Beta adrenergic-blocking agents are recommended to reduce aortic dilation. Losartan was added as an alternative to beta adrenergic-blocking agents in FTAAD after studies showed its efficacy in children and young adults with MFS who were randomly assigned to losartan or atenolol. Penetrance: A study of 31 individuals with PRKG1 pathogenic variants indicated that 63% presented with an aortic dissection and 37% had aortic root enlargement.

Zornitza Stark changed review comment from: Rated as 'strong actionability' in paediatric patients by ClinGen together with other ARVC genes. ARVC is a progressive heart disease characterized by degeneration of cardiac myocytes and their subsequent replacement by fat and fibrous tissue primarily in the right ventricle, though the left ventricle may also be affected. It is associated with an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmia (VA) and sudden cardiac death (SCD) in young individuals and athletes. The VA is usually in proportion to the degree of ventricular remodeling and dysfunction, and electrical instability. The mechanism of SCD is cardiac arrest due to sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibrillation (VF). Age of onset is highly variable with a mean age of diagnosis of 31 years and a range of 4 to 64 years. Antiarrhythmic drugs and beta-blockers are not recommended in healthy gene carriers. In patients with ARVC and ventricular arrhythmia (VA), a beta-blocker or other antiarrhythmic is recommended. Recommendations for ICD placement in patients with ARVC differ across guidelines, both in terms of the indications for placement and whether recommendations are based on evidence or expert opinion. Recommendations based on non-randomized studies support ICD placement in patients with ARVC and an additional marker of increased risk of SCD (resuscitated SCA, sustained VT hemodynamically tolerated, and significant ventricular dysfunction with RVEF or LVEF ≤35%) and in patients with ARVC and syncope presumed to be due to VA if meaningful survival greater than 1 year is expected. The presence of a combination of other risk factors (e.g., male sex, frequent PVCs, syncope) may also be used to indicate implantation. Serial screening for the emergence of cardiomyopathy is recommended for clinically unaffected individuals who carry a variant associated with ARVC, including: • Medical history, with special attention to heart failure symptoms, arrhythmias, presyncope or syncope, and thromboembolism • Physical examination with special attention to cardiac and neuromuscular systems and examination of the integumentary system if ARVC is suspected • Electrocardiography • Cardiovascular imaging. Penetrance: In a study of 264 probands with genetic variants associated with ARVC who presented alive, 73% had sustained VA, 13% had symptomatic HF, and 5% had cardiac death (2% SCD, 2% HF, and 1% HF with VA) during median 8-year follow-up. Among 385 family members of the probands who also carried an ARVC variant, 32% met clinical criteria for ARVC, 11% experienced sustained VA, and 2% died during follow-up (1% from SCD, 0.5% from HF, and 0.5% non-cardiac issues). In a second study of 220 probands with genetic variants associated with ARVC who presented alive, 54% presented with sustained VT. In 321 family members of the probands who also carried an ARVC variant, 14% were symptomatic at presentation but 8% experienced VA during a mean 4-year follow-up. For all 541 cases, 60% met clinical criteria for ARVC, 30% had sustained VA, 14% developed ventricular dysfunction, 5% experienced HF, 4% had a resuscitated SCD/VF, and 2% died over a mean follow-up of 6 years.; to: Rated as 'strong actionability' in paediatric patients by ClinGen together with other ARVC genes.

BabyScreen+ newborn screening v0.1801 | MLH1 |
Zornitza Stark changed review comment from: Note mono-allelic variants are associated with adult-onset cancer risk. MMRCS rated as 'strong actionability' in paediatric patients by ClinGen. The hallmark of MMRCS is early onset cancer, most often in childhood or young adulthood. The median age of onset of the first tumor is 7.5 years, with a wide range observed (0.4-39 years). A large portion (up to 40%) of patients develop metachronous second malignancies. The median survival after diagnosis of the primary tumor is less than 30 months. Prognosis depends on the possibility of complete resection, making early detection paramount. It is unclear what tumor spectrum will emerge among adults with MMRCS. Brain tumors are frequent and often diagnosed in the first decade of life. The rate of progression appears to be rapid in the brain tumors. The median age at diagnosis of brain tumors is 9 years (range, 2-40 years). Brain tumors are by far the most common cause of death. Colonic adenomatous oligopolyposis typically is diagnosed between 5 and 10 years of age. The progression of adenomas to malignancy in MMRCS is the most rapid of any inherited colorectal cancer syndrome. Among MMRCS patients presenting with colorectal cancer (CRC), the median age at diagnosis was 16 years (range, 8-48 years) with more than half of patients classified as pediatric-onset CRC. The age of onset of small-bowel adenomas is later; they typically develop in the second decade of life. The median age at diagnosis of small-bowel cancer was 28 years, with a range of 11-42 years. The lifetime risk of gastrointestinal cancer among MMRCS patients is the highest reported of all gastrointestinal cancer predisposition syndromes as a function of age. The median age at diagnosis of hematologic malignancy is 6.6 years. Endometrial cancer has been diagnosed between 19 and 44 years. The age at diagnosis of urinary tract tumors has ranged from 10 to 22 years. The management of MMRCS is based on the current estimates of neoplasia risk and the early age of onset for the cancers, which have led to tentative guidelines for the management of these patients. The age at which to begin surveillance varies by guideline and is represented below as age ranges. In patients with MMRCS, the following surveillance is suggested: •Screening for CRC by colonoscopy is recommended annually beginning at age 6 to 8 years. Once polyps are identified, colonoscopy every 6 months is recommended. •Annual surveillance for small-bowel cancer by upper endoscopy and video capsule endoscopy is suggested beginning at 8 to 10 years of age. Monitoring of hemoglobin levels every 6 months also is suggested, beginning at 8 years of age. •Surveillance for brain tumors by brain MRI every 6 to 12 months is suggested starting at the time of diagnosis even in the first year of life to age 2 years. •Currently, no proven surveillance modalities for leukemia or lymphoma have been identified. Complete blood count to screen for leukemia is suggested every 6 months beginning at 1 year of age. Clinical examinations and abdominal ultrasounds to screen for lymphoma every 6 months may be considered by the treating physician. •For individuals with a uterus, surveillance for endometrial cancer is suggested by transvaginal ultrasound, pelvic examination, and endometrial sampling annually starting at age 20 years. •Surveillance for cancer of the urinary tract is suggested, with annual urinalysis starting at age 10 to 20 years. •To screen for other types of tumors, whole-body MRI could be considered once a year starting at 6 years of age or when anesthesia is not needed. This method should not replace the need for ultrasound and brain MRI. Estimated penetrance in MMRCS: •50% develop small-bowel adenomas •>90% develop colorectal adenomas •59 to 70% develop colorectal cancer •58 to 70% develop high-grade brain tumours •20-40% develop lymphoma •10-40% develop leukemia •10 to 18% develop small-bowel cancer •<10% develop endometrial cancer •<10% develop urinary tract cancer •<10% develop cancer of other sites; to: Note mono-allelic variants are associated with adult-onset cancer risk.

The median survival after diagnosis of the primary tumor is less than 30 months. Prognosis depends on the possibility of complete resection, making early detection paramount. It is unclear what tumor spectrum will emerge among adults with MMRCS. Brain tumors are frequent and often diagnosed in the first decade of life. The rate of progression appears to be rapid in the brain tumors. The median age at diagnosis of brain tumors is 9 years (range, 2-40 years). Brain tumors are by far the most common cause of death. Colonic adenomatous oligopolyposis typically is diagnosed between 5 and 10 years of age. The progression of adenomas to malignancy in MMRCS is the most rapid of any inherited colorectal cancer syndrome. Among MMRCS patients presenting with colorectal cancer (CRC), the median age at diagnosis was 16 years (range, 8-48 years) with more than half of patients classified as pediatric-onset CRC. The age of onset of small-bowel adenomas is later; they typically develop in the second decade of life. The median age at diagnosis of small-bowel cancer was 28 years, with a range of 11-42 years. The lifetime risk of gastrointestinal cancer among MMRCS patients is the highest reported of all gastrointestinal cancer predisposition syndromes as a function of age. The median age at diagnosis of hematologic malignancy is 6.6 years. Endometrial cancer has been diagnosed between 19 and 44 years. The age at diagnosis of urinary tract tumors has ranged from 10 to 22 years. The management of MMRCS is based on the current estimates of neoplasia risk and the early age of onset for the cancers, which have led to tentative guidelines for the management of these patients. The age at which to begin surveillance varies by guideline and is represented below as age ranges. In patients with MMRCS, the following surveillance is suggested: •Screening for CRC by colonoscopy is recommended annually beginning at age 6 to 8 years. Once polyps are identified, colonoscopy every 6 months is recommended. •Annual surveillance for small-bowel cancer by upper endoscopy and video capsule endoscopy is suggested beginning at 8 to 10 years of age. Monitoring of hemoglobin levels every 6 months also is suggested, beginning at 8 years of age. •Surveillance for brain tumors by brain MRI every 6 to 12 months is suggested starting at the time of diagnosis even in the first year of life to age 2 years. •Currently, no proven surveillance modalities for leukemia or lymphoma have been identified. Complete blood count to screen for leukemia is suggested every 6 months beginning at 1 year of age. Clinical examinations and abdominal ultrasounds to screen for lymphoma every 6 months may be considered by the treating physician. •For individuals with a uterus, surveillance for endometrial cancer is suggested by transvaginal ultrasound, pelvic examination, and endometrial sampling annually starting at age 20 years. •Surveillance for cancer of the urinary tract is suggested, with annual urinalysis starting at age 10 to 20 years. •To screen for other types of tumors, whole-body MRI could be considered once a year starting at 6 years of age or when anesthesia is not needed. This method should not replace the need for ultrasound and brain MRI. Estimated penetrance in MMRCS: •50% develop small-bowel adenomas •>90% develop colorectal adenomas •59 to 70% develop colorectal cancer •58 to 70% develop high-grade brain tumours •20-40% develop lymphoma •10-40% develop leukemia •10 to 18% develop small-bowel cancer •<10% develop endometrial cancer •<10% develop urinary tract cancer •<10% develop cancer of other sites |

A multiple registry study examining neoplasm incidence in a cohort containing 102 non-probands with DICER1 pathogenic variants (3,344 person-years of observation in non-probands) found that by age 10 years, 5.3% (95% CI, 0.6% to 9.7%) of non-probands had developed a neoplasm (females, 4.0%; males, 6.6%). By age 50 years, 19.3% (95% CI, 8.4% to 29.0%) of non-probands had developed a neoplasm (females, 26.5%; males, 10.2%). Most individuals with pathogenic variants in DICER1 are healthy or have only minor DICER1-associaited conditions. The most severe manifestations tend to present in early childhood with adulthood characterized by good health. The majority of tumors in individuals with DICER1 pathogenic variants occur in individuals younger than 40. Many of these tumors typically only occur in childhood, including: PPB (before age 7), CN (before age 4), CBME typically occurs in young children, pituitary blastoma (before age 2), and childhood pineoblastoma (only one has been reported associated with a DICER1 mutation). Surveillance recommendations: In order to detect pulmonary cysts or PPB (one of the most important causes of DICER1-associated morbidity and mortality), chest x-rays are recommended every 6 months from birth to through age 7 years and then annually from 8-12 years. A chest computed tomography (CT) (with efforts to minimize radiation) should be obtained by 9 months of age, preferably between 3 and 6 months of age and repeated at approximately 2.5 years of age. Abdominal ultrasound is recommended for the detection in infancy or at the time of the first chest CT then every 6-12 months until at least 8 years of age. Annual ultrasound may be considered until 12 years of age. Beginning at ages 8-10 females should receive pelvic ultrasound performed in conjunction with abdominal ultrasound (every 6-12 months) until at least age 40 or as needed for signs and symptoms. Individuals should undergo thyroid ultrasound with assessment for regional adenopathy every 2 to 3 years starting at age 8 or as needed for signs and symptoms. An annual routine dilated ophthalmologic exam with visual acuity screening is recommended from age 3 to at least age 10 for detection of CBME. Sources: ClinGen |

BabyScreen+ newborn screening v0.1748 | PRKAR1A |
Zornitza Stark edited their review of gene: PRKAR1A: Added comment: Rated as 'strong actionability' in paediatric patients by ClinGen, principally due to benefit from early detection of cardiac myxomas through surveillance. CNC is associated with skin pigmentary abnormalities, myxomas, endocrine tumors or overactivity, and schwannomas. Lentigines are the most common presenting feature of CNC and may be present at birth. Typically, they increase in number at puberty, fade after the fourth decade, but may still be evident in the eighth decade. Cutaneous myxomas appear between birth and the fourth decade. Cardiac myxomas may occur at a young age. Breast myxomas occur in females after puberty. Males and females may develop nipple myxomas at any age. In a minority of individuals, PPNAD presents in the first two to three years; in the majority, it presents in the second or third decade. LCCSCT often present in the first decade. Signs and symptoms of CNC may be present at birth, but the median age of diagnosis is 20 years. Most patients with CNC present with a mild increase in GH. However, clinically evident acromegaly is a relatively frequent manifestation of CNC, occurring in approximately 10% of adults at the time of presentation. Most individuals with CNC have a normal life span. However, because some die at an early age, the average life expectancy for individuals with CNC is 50 years. Causes of death include complications of cardiac myxoma (myxoma emboli, cardiomyopathy, cardiac arrhythmia, and surgical intervention), metastatic or intracranial PMS, thyroid carcinoma, and metastatic pancreatic and testicular tumors. The only preventive measure in an asymptomatic individual is surgical removal of a heart tumor (cardiac myxoma) prior to the development of heart dysfunction, stroke, or other embolism. Cardiac myxomas should be diagnosed early through regular screening. Development of metabolic abnormalities from Cushing syndrome or arthropathy and other complications from acromegaly may be prevented by medical or surgical treatment of the respective endocrine manifestations. The overall penetrance of CNC in those with a PRKAR1A pathogenic variant is greater than 95% by age 50 years. 30-60% have cardiac myxomas.; Changed rating: GREEN; Changed phenotypes: Carney complex, type 1, MIM# 160980 |

Zornitza Stark changed review comment from: Well established gene-disease association. Natural history: In males, truncating variants in COL4A5 are associated with an earlier age at onset of kidney failure; risk of ESRD before age 30 is estimated as 90% for large rearrangements and pathogenic nonsense and frameshift variants, 70% for splice variants, and 50% for missense variants. In males, progressive SNHL is usually present by late childhood or early adolescence, and interior lenticous typically becomes apparent in late adolescence or early adulthood. In females, renal disease ranges from asymptomatic disease to lifelong microhematuria to renal failure at a young age. In females, progressive SNHL is typically later in life, lenticonus may not occur, and central retinopathy is rare. Assessed as 'strongly actionable' in paediatric patients by ClinGen. Treatment: ACE inhibitors alter long-term outcomes. Males with XLAS are recommended to be treated with ACEi at diagnosis (if older than 12-24 months), even before the onset of proteinuria. Guidelines differ slightly for the initiation of treatment in females with XLAS; one guideline recommends initiation of treatment at onset of microalbuminuria while a second recommends initiation at onset of microalbuminuria, hypertension, or renal impairment.
