“…Recent panel NGS analyses in large cohorts have shown that the CHEK2 mutation rate is one of the highest among non‐ BRCA1/BRCA2 genes in BC in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish or European ancestry . However, the classification of most missense variants remains uncertain, their assessment is problematic, and nearly one‐third of CHEK2 variants are reported discordantly …”

“…[23][24][25][26] However, the classification of most missense variants remains uncertain, 27 their assessment is problematic, 4 and nearly one-third of CHEK2 variants are reported discordantly. 28 In contrast to BC, the association of CHEK2 germline variants with OC risk is disputable. While several case-control studies have not significantly associated the c.1100delC mutation with OC development, 29,30 recent panel NGS analyses in 4,439 and 6,001 OC samples from the US identified CHEK2 as the third most frequently affected susceptibility gene.…”

“…Tyto přístupy dalece přesahují možnosti rutinní dia gnostiky a informace o přítomnosti VUS značně komplikuje klinickou využitelnost NGS analýz [23]. Nejednotné hodnocení VUS způsobuje, že téměř třetina dia gnostikovaných CHEK2 variant je reportována diskrepantně [24].…”
