Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates have a confirmed genetic diagnosis (PCCA or PCCB mutations), have provided consent/assent, and have sufficient medical records documenting the required metabolic decompensation history.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients without molecular confirmation, without records dating back to birth or 01 January 2015 (or sufficient additional documentation), or without the specified history of metabolic decompensation are unlikely to be included and may not benefit directly.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This is a non-interventional, retrospective, multicenter effort that abstracts clinical data from medical records to describe participant characteristics, clinical outcomes, and event rates in propionic acidemia. Only records from people with molecular confirmation of PCCA or PCCB mutations and sufficient documentation of metabolic decompensation events are included, with data captured back to birth or January 1, 2015, as available. Clinical events are documented to support CEC adjudication and to quantify metabolic decompensation event (MDE) rates and other outcomes. Data are drawn from participating medical clinics, hospitals, and academic medical centers, including several US tertiary centers.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the study could clarify the typical disease course and event rates in propionic acidemia to help clinicians plan care and inform future therapy development.
How similar studies have gone: Retrospective natural-history studies in propionic acidemia and related organic acidemias have previously provided useful clinical insights, so this approach is established though disease-specific data remain limited.

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria: Participants' medical records are eligible for abstraction only if all of the following criteria apply: * Confirmed diagnosis of PA based on diagnosis by molecular genetic testing (propionyl-CoA carboxylase subunitα\[PCCA\] and/or propionyl-CoA carboxylase subunitβ\[PCCB\] mutations). * Participant provided informed consent (and assent, as applicable). * Medical records with sufficient data to support medical encounter for CEC adjudication (MEA adjudication) must be available dating back to birth or 01 January 2015, whichever occurs later. Participants born prior to 2015 will require additional information to confirm eligibility. * Experienced at least one MDE in the 24 months preceding the Index Date or experienced at least 3 MDEs within any one 12-month retrospective review period (based on Index Date) dating back to birth or 01 January 2015, whichever occurs later. * Must have a confirmed age (months) of disease onset (early or late, where early is defined as the neonatal period). * Participants who meet any of the censoring criteria listed below may be enrolled into the study if they have a minimum of 2 years of data available for abstraction prior to meeting the censoring criteria and they meet all inclusion criteria based on the data available for abstraction. Censoring Criteria: Participants medical records meeting the following censoring criterion will not be abstracted: * Participation in a clinical study of any investigational agent. * Received gene therapy treatment * Confirmed organ transplantation * Investigator is no longer able to obtain relevant clinical information of the participant. * Death Exclusion Criteria: Participant's medical records will not be eligible for abstraction if the participant meets the following exclusion criteria: \- Participation (prior or ongoing) in clinical study mRNA-3927-P101 (NCT04159103) or mRNA-3927-P101-EXT (NCT05130437).
