hello
this is one solution (for strings) . For char array it's almost the same (you don't even need to convert back from char to string as I did in the last line here)
str = "a_PSTC_SSSA_MNG_epwcrrauut_A" % input string
ind = strfind(str,'_');
str = char(str);
str_out = string(str(1:ind(end-1)-1)) % output string

Try this:
s = "a_PSTC_SSSA_MNG_epwcrrauut_A_Extrastuff"
words = strsplit(s, '_')
for k = 1 : numel(words)
thisWord = words{k};
capWord = upper(thisWord);
if strcmp(thisWord, capWord)
fprintf('The word %s is all capitals.\n', thisWord);
elseif strcmp(thisWord(1), capWord(1))
fprintf('The word %s has the first letter capitalized.\n', thisWord);
else
fprintf('The word %s is something else.\n', thisWord);
end
end
