The action taken with mRNA-1273 (Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine) (Unknown) was unknown.   For mRNA-1273 (Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine) (Unknown), the reporter considered HYPERGLYCAEMIC HYPEROSMOLAR NONKETOTIC SYNDROME (Hyperglycaemic hyperosmolar nonketotic syndrome ), ACUTE KIDNEY INJURY (acute kidney injury), PYREXIA (subjective fever), FATIGUE (fatigue), MYALGIA (myalgia) and PNEUMONIA BACTERIAL (Community-acquired bacterial pneumonia) to be possibly related.    No relevant concomitant medications were reported.  He denied cough, dyspnea, rhinorrhea, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, or dysuria. The patient was empirically treated for a community-acquired bacterial pneumonia. A repeat HbA1c of 5.9% and a C-peptide of 6.02 ng/mL 2 months after discharge indicated complete resolution of the prior hyperglycemic emergency. The patient was discharged home on a simplified regimen of glargine 12 units once daily, metformin 1000 mg twice daily, and sitagliptin 100 mg daily. The patient's glycemic control improved at home with glucoses consistently ranging less than 140 mg/dL and the regimen has since been gradually downtitrated to merely metformin 1000 mg twice daily.A recent HbA1c from 8 weeks pre-admission was 7.5%, for which the patient was not taking any T2DM medications.  This case concerns a 59-year-old, male patient with a history of Type 2 diabetes mellitus and COVID-19 infection (10 months earlier), who experienced the unexpected serious events of Hyperglycaemic hyperosmolar nonketotic syndrome, Pneumonia bacterial and Acute kidney injury (AESI). The events occurred approximately 2 days after the first dose of mRNA-1273 vaccine. The rechallenge was unknown since the events happened after the first dose and no information on additional dosing is available. The medical history of Type 2 diabetes mellitus and COVID-19 infection (10 months earlier) remain as confounders. Acute kidney injury could be a result of Hyperglycaemic hyperosmolar nonketotic syndrome. The benefit-risk relationship of mRNA-1273 vaccine is not affected by this report. Case was assessed as serious due to important medical event and hospitalization.   This case was linked to MOD-2021-394130 (Patient Link).   Most recent FOLLOW-UP information incorporated above includes: On 24-Nov-2021: Follow up received by safety on 25-Nov-2021 included an Email with Agency received from medical team includes medical history, lab data, events, patient details.; Sender's Comments: This case concerns a 59-year-old, male patient with a history of Type 2 diabetes mellitus and COVID-19 infection (10 months earlier), who experienced the unexpected serious events of Hyperglycaemic hyperosmolar nonketotic syndrome, Pneumonia bacterial and Acute kidney injury (AESI).
