What is the difference between Cytotoxic and Cytogenotoxic?

I did a little research, but I'm not fully confident if what I found is correct.

Cytotoxic: Anything that kills cells (including cancer cells).
Cytogenotoxic: Anything that mutates the DNA of a cell (can lead to cancer).

Mutogenic and carcinogenic are terms we use for causing mutation and cancer causing.
Remember most mutations are neutral.
Cytotoxic is poisonous to the cell.

Genotoxicity from a search relates to an affect on the DNA but not necessarily a mutation. So it may affect protein synthesis, gene regulation etc.
@yddd is a cancer researcher, he will have a better handle.
