Based on the information available, there is no definitive evidence that suggests Lurbinectedin can cause long-term health problems. Lurbinectedin is an anti-cancer drug that works by inhibiting the transcriptional activity of oncogenic fusion proteins and interfering with DNA damage repair [1]. It is currently in the clinical trial phase and has not been approved by the FDA for widespread use [2].
Clinical trials are designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of new drugs, and any potential long-term health problems would typically be identified during this process. However, it is important to note that the long-term effects of a drug may not become apparent until it has been used by a larger population over an extended period of time.
It is also worth noting that Lurbinectedin is a type of chemotherapy drug, which can have a range of side effects, some of which may be long-term. These can include damage to the heart, lungs, nerves, and reproductive organs [3]. However, these risks are generally associated with chemotherapy as a whole, rather than specifically with Lurbinectedin.
In conclusion, while there is currently no evidence to suggest that Lurbinectedin can cause long-term health problems, the long-term effects of the drug will continue to be studied as it moves through the clinical trial process.
