Disrupting Insulin-Like Growth Factor Signaling as a Potential Cancer Therapy
Abstract
The type I insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) plays multiple roles in several cancers and increased circulating levels of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) are associated with increased risk of breast, colon, and prostate cancers. Because IGF-II and insulin signal via the insulin receptor (IR) to stimulate the growth of cancer cells, inhibition of IR might be necessary to totally disrupt the action of IGFs and their receptors. This review describes the well-recognized roles of IGF-IR in driving the malignant phenotype, examines the evidence that perhaps IR should also be targeted to inhibit the effects of the IGF ligands and insulin in cancer, describes the strategies to disrupt IGF signaling in cancer, and highlights some key issues that need to be considered as clinical trials targeting IGF-IR proceed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
