NCIt definition : A synthetic purpurin with photosensitizing activity. Tin ethyl etiopurpurin preferentially
accumulates in tumor cells due to an increased rate of metabolism. Upon exposure to
a light source, this agent absorbs light, forming an extended high energy conformational
state that produces high quantum yields of singlet oxygen with local cytotoxic effects.
(NCI04);
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: An anticancer drug that is also used in cancer prevention. It belongs to
the family of drugs called photosensitizing agents.;
