BS1/BA1 thresholds derived from disease-specific genetic architectures result in decreased rates of VUS in clinically relevant genes

Presenting Author: Matthew P. Johnson, PhD

Take home points: 

  1. When applying BS1/BA1 evidence, the adoption of gene-specific population frequency thresholds results in a decrease in VUS rates in clinically relevant genes.
  2. A reduction in VUS rates decreases the burden associated with a patient receiving an uncertain test result.
