Hereditary hypophosphatemic rickets is a group of genetic disorders with variable severity and age at onset. Signs and symptoms are typically present in early childhood and may include low levels of phosphate in the blood, and abnormalities of bone development, movement, and growth. The inheritance pattern varies depending on the causative gene. The most common form of the disorder, X-linked hypophosphatemia, is caused by pathogenic variants in the PHEX gene. X-linked hypophosphatemia accounts for approximately 80% of all cases of hereditary hyphosphatemic rickets. This test assists in the differential diagnosis of patients with unclear cases of hypophosphatemic rickets.

NUCLEAR GENE SINGLE NUCLEOTIDE POLYMORPHISM AND SMALL INDEL SEQUENCING ASSESSMENT:
Genomic regions of interest are selected using a custom capture reagent for target enrichment (Twist Bioscience) and sequenced via the Illumina® Novaseq 6000 next generation sequencing platform. Sequencing reads are aligned with the human genome reference GRCh37/hg19 build. Regions of interest include all exons and intron/exon junctions (+/-20 nucleotides) for each gene analyzed. A minimum of 99% of bases in targeted regions are covered at >15X. Analytical sensitivity is estimated to be >99% for single nucleotide variants, >97% for insertions/deletions less than six base pairs, and >95% for insertions/deletions between six and fifteen base pairs. Uncovered regions with known pathogenic variants are sequenced in a targeted manner (List based on ClinVar Database: June 2, 2020 release).
NUCLEAR GENE COPY NUMBER VARIANT ASSESSMENT: Next Generation Sequencing data used to call SNPs and
small indels are assessed with Illumina’s DRAGEN (Dynamic Read Analysis for GENomics) Bio-IT Platform. Genes listed in ClinVar with intragenic pathogenic deletions are padded with additional intronic probes to allow single exon resolution CNV detection (List based on ClinVar Deletion Database: January 2019 release; see bolded genes in appendix). For other genes, large deletions (>10 exons) can be detected. The resolution of this analysis can vary depending on region-specific features. Analytical sensitivity is estimated to be >95%.
RESULTS INTERPRETATION: Results should be used in the context of available clinical information and should not be
used as the sole basis for patient management or treatment. Genetic counseling is recommended. Variants are assessed according to ACMG criteria (Richards et al. 2015; PMID: 25741868). This report contains interpretation of PATHOGENIC and LIKELY PATHOGENIC variants (by ACMG Criteria) as well as VARIANTS OF UNCERTAIN SIGNIFICANCE (VUS) with pathogenic predictions related to the clinical information provided. Variants not reported: (1) Variants classified as BENIGN or LIKELY BENIGN by ACMG Criteria; (2) VARIANTS OF UNCERTAIN SIGNIFICANCE (VUS) with benign or likely benign predictions; (3) Variants related to carrier status; (4) Polymorphisms with implications in drug response (pharmacogenomics variants). We will reanalyze the data periodically at the clinician’s request to allow potential reinterpretation based on new research or evidence.

NEXT GENERATION SEQUENCING (NGS) TEST LIMITATIONS: This assay will not consistently detect germline
mosaicism below 50% or rule out the presence of large chromosomal aberrations, including rearrangements and inversions that do not change copy number of genomic regions. The assay does not detect repeat expansions. Possible intergenic variant interactions are not commented on. False positive or false negative results may occur for reasons that include: insufficient information available about rare genetic variants, sex chromosome abnormalities, pseudogene interference, homologous regions, blood transfusions, bone marrow transplantation, somatic or tissue-specific mosaicism, mislabeled samples, or erroneous representation of family relationships. Variants that do not alter an amino acid composition of a protein may be difficult to assess for pathogenicity since they may produce abnormalities in structures NOT assessed by conventional analysis paradigms (e.g. mRNA expression and processing; Science 2006:314 (5807):1930-1933).
Interpretation of the clinical significance of gene variations is limited by information about the variant that is available at the time of reporting, and by the quality and quantity of clinical information provided with the sample. As the understanding of human genetic diversity improves, the interpretation of the clinical significance of variants may change.
IN SILICO ASSESSMENT: In silico assessments do NOT definitively identify a variant as benign or pathogenic and should
NOT be relied upon as the sole criteria for ANY patient diagnosis. MutationTaster, PolyPhen-2 and SIFT are tools which predict the possible impact of an amino acid substitution on the structure and function of human proteins (PMID 19561590, 22261837, 20354512, 21520341, 24681721; http://www.mutationtaster.org). A cross comparison of in silico methods is
FALSE POSITIVES AND NEGATIVES: For specimens sent to ANY laboratory, a consideration for false positive or false
negative test results is the improper labeling of the patient’s sample during the acquisition, shipping, receipt and testing process. We take no responsibility for any specimen labeling errors that occur before the sample arrives at Medical
Neurogenetics. LLC. If test results are inconsistent with the clinical presentation, call Medical Neurogenetics, LLC to discuss the case or submit another sample for confirmatory testing.
REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL DATA: For researchers or clinicians interested in receiving a list of all variants identified in
the analysis, we will provide this list without interpretation at your request and at no additional charge. We will also provide details of gene coverage for the analysis at your request. Please submit all requests online at our website:

CONSENT FOR TESTING: Obtaining and maintaining patient consent for genetic testing is the sole responsibility of the
managing physician and institution. A genetic testing consent form is available on our website.
FDA NOTES: This test was developed and its performance characteristics determined by Medical Neurogenetics, LLC. It
has not been cleared or approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. FDA does not require this test to go through premarket FDA review. This test is used for clinical purposes.

The PHEX gene has been associated with the following phenotypes: Hypophosphatemic rickets, X-linked dominant
A heterozygous variant was detected. This variant is a change of the leucine acid at amino acid position 277 to a termination or STOP codon, which is predicted to cause premature truncation of the protein. In PMID 9106524, this variant, also referred to as Leu274Ter, was detected in a female patient with a sporadic case of hypophosphatemia. This variant has been
submitted to ClinVar once as pathogenic (Submission Accession ID: SCV000031795.2). The available data justify the classification as PATHOGENIC.
