description: 'A CIViC assertion classifies the clinical significance of a variant-disease
  relationship under recognized guidelines. The CIViC Assertion (AID) summarizes a
  collection of Evidence Items (EIDs) that covers predictive/therapeutic, diagnostic,
  prognostic or predisposing clinical information for a variant in a specific cancer
  context. CIViC currently has two main types of Assertions: those based on variants
  of primarily somatic origin (predictive/therapeutic, prognostic, and diagnostic)
  and those based on variants of primarily germline origin (predisposing). When the
  number and quality of Predictive, Prognostic, Diagnostic or Predisposing Evidence
  Items (EIDs) in CIViC sufficiently cover what is known for a particular variant
  and cancer type, then a corresponding assertion be created in CIViC.'
