Original ACMG Summary Null variant (nonsense, frameshift, canonical +/−1 or 2 splice sites, initiation codon, single or multi-exon deletion) in a gene where loss of function (LOF) is a known mechanism of disease. Caveats: • Beware of genes where LOF is not a known disease mechanism (e.g. GFAP, MYH7). • Use caution interpreting LOF variants at the extreme 3’ end of a gene. • Use caution with splice variants that are predicted to lead to exon skipping but leave the remainder of the protein intact. • Use caution in the presence of multiple transcripts. Stand Alone Very Strong Defer to SVI recommendations Strong Moderate Supporting Not Applicable

Original ACMG Summary Same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change. Example: Val->Leu caused by either G>C or G>T in the same codon. Caveat: Beware of changes that impact splicing rather than at the amino acid/protein level. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong Must confirm there is no difference in splicing using RNA data. Can only compare to variants asserted as pathogenic by the ClinGen TP53 EP. Moderate Must confirm there is no difference in splicing using in silico modeling data using a splice metapredictor (SpliceAI, VarSEAK, etc). Can only compare to variants asserted as pathogenic by the ClinGen TP53 EP. Supporting Instructions: Can only compare to variants asserted as payhogenic by the ClinGen TP53 VCEP Not Applicable

Original ACMG Summary De novo (both maternity and paternity confirmed) in a patient with the disease and no family history. Note: Confirmation of paternity only is insufficient. Egg donation, surrogate motherhood, errors in embryo transfer, etc. can contribute to non-maternity. Stand Alone Very Strong Use SVI point system table. See Cancer Criteria List & TP53 Point Table at end of document. ≥4 points (ex. – 2 cancers in two probands from the strong criteria list or 4 cancers from 4 probands from the moderate criteria). For probands with multiple cancers, use the most specific/highest weight cancer to determine point for that proband. Strong Use SVI point system table. See Cancer Criteria List & TP53 Point Table at end of document. 2-3 points (ex. – 1 cancer from the strong criteria list or 2 from the moderate criteria list) Moderate Use SVI point system table. See Cancer Criteria List & TP53 Point Table at end of document. 1 point (for 1 cancer from the moderate criteria list) Supporting Use SVI point system table.

Original ACMG Summary Well-established in vitro or in vivo functional studies supportive of a damaging effect on the gene or gene product. Note: Functional studies that have been validated and shown to be reproducible and robust in a clinical diagnostic laboratory setting are considered the most well-established. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong Transactivation assays in yeast (IARC classification based on data from Kato et al, 2003) that demonstrate a low functioning allele (<= 20% activity) AND: Evidence of dominant negative effect (DNE) + evidence of LOF from Giacomelli, et al data OR There is a 2nd assay showing low function (colony formation assays, apoptosis assays, tetramer assays, knock-in mouse models and growth suppression assays) Do not use code with conflicting evidence Moderate (A) Transactivation assays in yeast (IARC classification based on data from Kato et al, 2003) that demonstrate a partially functioning allele (>20-and <=75% activity) AND: Evidence of DNE + evidence of LOF from Giacomelli, et al data. OR There is a 2nd assay showing low function. Do not use code with conflicting evidence. (B) No transactivation assays (IARC classification based on data Kato et al, 2003) available BUT: Evidence of DNE + evidence of LOF from Giacomelli, et al data. AND There is a 2nd assay showing low function Do not use code with conflicting evidence. Supporting Instructions: See flow chart for use of Kato, Giacomelli, and Kotler assays. Non-systematic assays are harder to interpret but if there are several of them and if all suggets benign or pathogenic, they should be taken into account. A large proportion of these assays are documented in the IARC database and should be easily found by curtators. Other assays that may be used including in vitro growth asaays in H1299 human cells from Kotler et al (2018) with RFS score >= -1.0 for LOF and RFS score <1 for noLOF; or colony formation assays, growth suppression assays, apoptosis assays, tetramer assays, knock-in mouse models. Do not use code with conflicting evidence. Not Applicable

Original ACMG Summary The prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared to the prevalence in controls. Note 1: Relative risk (RR) or odds ratio (OR), as obtained from case-control studies, is >5.0 and the confidence interval around the estimate of RR or OR does not include 1.0. See manuscript for detailed guidance. Note 2: In instances of very rare variants where case-control studies may not reach statistical significance, the prior observation of the variant in multiple unrelated patients with the same phenotype, and its absence in controls, may be used as moderate level of evidence. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong Use proband counting system described below in text. PS4 = 4+ points Moderate Use proband counting point system described in text below. PS4_moderate = 2-3 points Supporting Use proband counting point system described in text below. PS4_Suppporting = 1 point Instructions: Use proband counting system Not Applicable

Original ACMG Summary Absent from controls (or at extremely low frequency if recessive) in Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes or Exome Aggregation Consortium. Caveat: Population data for indels may be poorly called by next generation sequencing. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong Moderate Supporting Variant needs to be absent from controls. The variant must be absent from population databases. gnomAD is the preferred population database at this time (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). The most recent version of gnomAD with a non-cancer subpopulation should be used; however, other versions may be utilized if there is reason to believe they would provide necessary information for curating the variant. Instructions: The variant must be absent from population databases, gnomAD is the preferred pipulation database at this time. Not Applicable

Original ACMG Summary Novel missense change at an amino acid residue where a different missense change determined to be pathogenic has been seen before. Example: Arg156His is pathogenic; now you observe Arg156Cys. Caveat: Beware of changes that impact splicing rather than at the amino acid/protein level. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong Moderate Multiple pathogenic variants (≥2) at that residue using the requirements specified below (excluding known hot spots) would be required. Grantham should be used to compare the variants. At least one of the new variants must be equal or worse than known pathogenic variant. Splicing should be ruled out. Can only compare to variants asserted as pathogenic by the ClinGen TP53 EP. Rule cannot be used in conjunction with PM1. Supporting Grantham should be used to compare variants. The new variant must be equal or worse than known mutation. Splicing should be ruled out. Rule cannot be used in conjunction with PM1. Instructions: This evidence code can be applied when there are >2 pathogenic variants at the same residue (excluding known hot spots). The other variants must be asserted as pathogenic by the ClinGen TP53 VCEP. Grantham should be used to compare the variants. The variant being evaluated must be equal to or worse than known mutations. Splicing should be ruled out. Not Applicable

Original ACMG Summary Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (conservation, evolutionary, splicing impact, etc.). Caveat: As many in silico algorithms use the same or very similar input for their predictions, each algorithm should not be counted as an independent criterion. PP3 can be used only once in any evaluation of a variant. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong Moderate PolyPhen2 and SIFT in silico modeling programs should not be used for this gene. Missense variants: aGVGD (Zebrafish; Class C65 required) and BayesDel (score ≥ 0.16) Supporting PolyPhen2 and SIFT in silico modeling programs should not be used for this gene. Concordance of two predictors is recommended for this gene: Missense variants: aGVGD (Zebrafish; Class C25 and higher are considered evidence of pathogenicity) and BayesDel (scores ≥ 0.16 are considered evidence of pathogenic) Splicing variants: Evidence of splice effect on a splice metapredictor (SpliceAI, VarSEAK, etc). Instructions: Concordance of two predictors is recommended for this gene. Missense variants: according to a published study by Fortuno et al 2018 comparing the performance of different bioinformatics tools for TP563, the tools selected are aGVGD (Zebrafish; Class C15 and higher are considered evidence of pathogenicity) and BayesDel (scores >=0.16 are considered evidence of pathogenic). Please refer to the cited manuscript for further details. Splicing variants: MaxEntScan and Human Splicing Finder (HSF) should be used. Not Applicable

Use a minor allele frequency cutoff of >0.0003 but <0.001 (99.99% CI, sub-population must have a minimum of 5 alleles present in the sub-population) based on the Whiffen-Ware calculator. To set the strong benign MAF cutoff, we used a prevalence of 1 in 5,000 from Lalloo, et a 2006 (PMID:16644204). We set the genetic and allelic heterogeneity at 100% and penetrance at 30%. Moderate Supporting Instructions: Use a minor allele frequency cutoff of >=0.0003 but <0.001 (99.99% CI, sub-population must have a minimum of 5 alleles present in the sub-population) based on Whiffen-Ware calculator.

Original ACMG Summary Observed in a healthy adult individual for a recessive (homozygous), dominant (heterozygous), or X-linked (hemizygous) disorder, with full penetrance expected at an early age. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong Observed in ≥8 cancer free 60+ year old females obtained from the same data source. Using TP53 multigene panel testing results from two diagnostic labs, we compared the proportion of cancer-free individuals by age 60 in TP53 carriers versus TP53-negative controls. Based on the correspondence between likelihood ratios of pathogenicity and different levels of strengths for ACMG/AMP rules in the study by Tavtigian et al., 2018 (PMID: 29300386), our most conservative results support the following: This evidence code can be used when a variant is observed in ≥8 females who have reached at least 60 years of age without cancer. These individuals all must have come from a single source (single lab, database, etc). Cases cannot be counted across sources. Moderate Supporting Observed in 2-7 cancer free 60+ year old females obtained from the same data source.

Original ACMG Summary Lack of segregation in affected members of a family. Caveat: The presence of phenocopies for common phenotypes (i.e. cancer, epilepsy) can mimic lack of segregation among affected individuals. Also, families may have more than one pathogenic variant contributing to an autosomal dominant disorder, further confounding an apparent lack of segregation. Stand Alone Very Strong Strong Variant segregates to opposite side of the family who meets LFS criteria. OR Variant is present in ≥3 living unaffected individuals (at least 2 of which should be female) above 55 years of age. Moderate Supporting Instructions: Evidence code can be used in either scenario: the variant segregates to the opposite side of the family who meets LFS criteria OR the variant is present in >=3 living unaffected individuals ( at least 2 of 3 should be female) above 55 years of age Not Applicable
