      [Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC5019182

      Evidence Type(s): Oncogenic, Functional, Predisposing, Diagnostic, Prognostic

      Justification: Oncogenic: The text states that all identified mutations in PIK3CA, including p.Glu545Lys and p.His1047Arg, are oncogenic and have been documented in the Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer (COSMIC). Functional: The passage mentions that most mutations are proven or predicted to have a gain-of-function (GOF) mechanism, with published functional studies demonstrating GOF for at least 9 of the 41 mutations identified. Predisposing: The text describes that several patients with PIK3CA mutations exhibit classic features of MCAP and other developmental disorders, indicating that these mutations predispose individuals to these conditions. Diagnostic: The identification of PIK3CA mutations through clinical testing methods such as targeted NGS and whole-exome sequencing suggests that these mutations can serve as diagnostic markers for related developmental disorders. Prognostic: The presence of specific mutations and their associated alternative allele percentages (AAPs) in patients may provide insights into the clinical outcomes and severity of the associated phenotypes, indicating a prognostic value.

      Evidence Type(s): Diagnostic, Oncogenic

      Justification: Diagnostic: The passage discusses the presence of specific PIK3CA mutations in patients with distinct clinical features, indicating that these mutations are associated with certain syndromes, such as linear nevus sebaceous or Schimmelpenning syndrome and CLOVES syndrome. Oncogenic: The passage mentions that the PIK3CA mutations are "hotspot" mutations commonly seen in cancer, suggesting that these somatic variants contribute to tumor development or progression.
