The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of mRNA-3927 administered to participants with propionic acidemia (PA) who have previously participated in Study mRNA-3927-P101 (NCT04159103).
Phase 1 trials primarily test safety and dosing in a small number of participants (typically 20–100). Results do not yet speak to efficacy. FDA approval is typically many years away from this stage.
Phase 2 trials begin testing efficacy in a larger patient group (100–300). This is often where biotech binary events occur — positive Phase 2 data can significantly advance a company's pipeline narrative, while failures can be terminal for a program.
Currently recruiting: the trial is enrolling patients. A data readout is not expected until after enrollment closes and the follow-up period is complete.
Moderna Inc (MRNA) is the sponsoring company for this trial. BiotechSign currently grades this company C (64/100) based on composite catalyst signals across its full pipeline. This trial is one data point in that overall catalyst picture.
