Abstract
Various drug discovery approaches have been explored in recent years to modulate the function of insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R). This article focuses on the contributions of low-molecular-mass inhibitors in the modulation of IGF-1R kinase activity, and provides an update on recent reviews for this type of agent. Different classes of compounds have been demonstrated to be capable of modulating the kinase activity of IGF-1R in ways that were not possible previously. Preclinical data with some of these inhibitors support the potential application of IGF-1R-targeted therapeutic strategies in the treatment of human cancers.
