NCIt related terms : OSI-906; IGF-1R inhibitor OSI-906;
NCIt definition : An orally bioavailable small molecule inhibitor of the insulin-like growth factor
1 receptor (IGF-1R) with potential antineoplastic activity. Linsitinib selectively
inhibits IGF-1R, which may result in the inhibition of tumor cell proliferation and
the induction of tumor cell apoptosis. Overexpressed in a variety of human cancers,
IGF-1R stimulates cell proliferation, enables oncogenic transformation, and suppresses
apoptosis.;
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: A substance being studied in the treatment of cancer. It blocks a protein
called IGF-1R, which is found at high levels in some types of tumors. IGF-1R is needed
for cell growth and blocking it may cause tumor cells to die. IGF-1R inhibitor OSI-906
is a type of IGF-1R inhibitor.;
