CanVIG-UK review of ATM, October 2025: Consensus to use relevant recommendations from the ClinGen Hereditary Breast, Ovarian
and Pancreatic Cancer Expert Panel Specifications to the ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines for ATM
Version 1.4.0 (available at: https://clinicalgenome.org/affiliation/50039/).
Additional points of specification are given below where applicable.
Additional Note: For diagnostic analysis and reporting for cancer indications, the scope of this test indication currently
includes canonical protein truncating variants and ATM c.7271T>G Val2424Gly. Please see the current UKCGG/CStAG
statement on reporting practice for variants in ATM for further information (available at: https://www.cangenecanvaruk.org/canvig-uk-variant-resources)

PS3/BS3: Functional assays
As per VCEP
PM1/PP2: Constraint/Domains

PP5/BP6 : Reputable source
As per VCEP
PP4/PS4: Case-control/Phenotype data)
As per VCEP.
Per correspondence with VCEP: 15/08/2025: Where ‘Case-control studies; p-value ≤.05 AND (Odds ratio, hazard ratio, or relative risk ≥2 OR lower 95% CI≥1.5).’ is stated, the odd ratio/hazard ratio/relative risk need to be more than/equal to 2, OR the lower confidence interval is 1.5 or more.
PM3/BP2: Biallelic Variants
As per VCEP
PM2/BA1/BS1: Allele frequency
As per VCEP.
Per correspondence with VCEP 30/07/2025:
- If grpmax FAF ≤0.001% (regardless of n) - apply PM2_sup
- If grpmax FAF not calculated (typically due to low n), look at highest ancestry AF:
-- If ≤0.001% (regardless of n) apply PM2_sup
-- If >0.001% but only n=1 in one population, apply PM2_sup
-- Otherwise, no criteria
- If grpmax FAF >0.001%, do not apply PM2_sup even if there is only one ancestry group with variant and ancestry AF is ≤0.001%
