Assessing performance of pathogenicity predictors using clinically relevant variant datasets

Adam C. Gunning et al.

Summary: This study validated the performance of several new meta-predictors in a clinically relevant dataset, and found that while the new meta-predictors outperformed traditional tools, all pathogenicity predictors showed lower performance in the clinically relevant dataset, with REVEL performing the best.

Opportunities and challenges for the computational interpretation of rare variation in clinically important genes

Gregory McInnes et al.

Summary: Genome sequencing enables precision medicine by tailoring treatment to individual genetic variations. Understanding the function and clinical impacts of rare genetic variants is crucial, particularly in genes of known importance. A genomic learning healthcare system is proposed to continuously collect and assess rare variants, with a focus on early-onset treatable diseases in newborns and actionable pharmacogenomics, utilizing emerging machine learning methods for prediction and considering ethical implications.

Variant curation expert panel recommendations for RYR1 pathogenicity classifications in malignant hyperthermia susceptibility

Jennifer J. Johnston et al.

Summary: The study aimed to adapt ACMG/AMP criteria for classification of RYR1 variants related to MH, which resulted in successfully identifying 29 pathogenic variants, 13 likely pathogenic variants, and 2 variants of uncertain significance through testing on 84 variants and fine-tuning of the criteria. The application of quantitative evidence calibration and Bayesian framework in this study is transferrable to other variant curation expert panels for genomic testing result classification.

Clinical likelihood ratios and balanced accuracy for 44 in silico tools against multiple large-scale functional assays of cancer susceptibility genes

C. Cubuk et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the predictive performance of 44 commonly used in silico tools against clinically validated functional truth sets, finding that most tool-threshold combinations had specificity of <50%, leading to substantial overcalling of deleteriousness. REVEL and Meta-SNP demonstrated the best balanced accuracy and could potentially be used with stronger evidence weighting than current ACMG/AMP guidelines, particularly for predictions of benignity.
