Arina Puzriakova Phenotypes for gene: EPCAM were changed from Gastrointestinal and Colorectal Cancer; High Risk Colorectal Cancer to Colorectal cancer, hereditary nonpolyposis, type 8, OMIM:613244
Ivone Leong commented on gene: EPCAM: Deletion of exons 8-9 is associated with polyposis/cancer and therefore testing would be for dosage analysis rather than sequencing. SNVs in EPCAM are not associated with polyposis/cancer.
Ivone Leong Added comment: Comment on list classification: As discussed in the GMS Inherited Cancer Specialist Test Group webex call 31st Jan 2019: The Specialist Test Group agreed that there is enough evidence to rate this gene green.
