AAVrh10-PCCA Gene Therapy for Propionic Acidemia

RecruitingPhase 1

Sponsor: Mayo Clinic

Conditions: Propionic Acidemia

Interventions: AAVrh10-PCCA low dose, AAVrh10-PCCA middle dose, AAVrh10-PCCA high dose

Countries: United States

Propionic acidemia is a genetic metabolic disorder characterized by metabolic acidosis, ketosis, vomiting, lethargy, cognitive impairment, and risk of death. It results from loss of function of the mitochondrial enzyme propionyl-CoA carboxylase and can be due to disease-causing variants in the PCCA gene, leading to accumulation of propionyl-CoA and its toxic metabolites. The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and potential therapeutic benefit of an AAV-based gene therapy for propionic acidemia in patients with genetically confirmed biallelic variants in PCCA.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

* Age six months to 2 years of age at day of vector infusion. For those \<1 year of age they must have been ≥37 weeks gestational age at the time of birth and without other conditions/comorbidities that in the opinion of the Investigator may interfere with the interpretation of study results.
* Confirmed diagnosis of propionic acidemia with biallelic PCCA gene mutations based on molecular genetic testing.
* Study participants must have a diagnosis of neonatal-onset propionic acidemia with a documented episode of decompensation that can include any of the following findings: lethargy, poor feeding, irritability, vomiting, encephalopathy, respiratory failure, seizures, coma, metabolic acidosis, lactic acidosis, ketonuria, hypoglycemia, hyperammonemia, and cytopenias or history of recurrent hospitalizations.
* Parents or legal guardians of study participants must agree to comply in good faith with the conditions of the study, including attending all of the required baseline and follow-up assessments, and parents or legal guardians must give consent for their child's participation.
