Abstract excerpt
Drug-related UVA-induced photoreactions have been reported for several therapeutic compounds, including fluoroquinolones. CX-5461 is a clinical stage quinolone-derived anti-cancer small molecule with documented UVA-sensitizing activity. Here, we compared, by bulk and clonal whole-genome sequencing under extraneous light-protected conditions, the mutational signatures in human retinal pigment epithelial cells...
