Abstract: Methods for treating diseases associated with the activity of the insulin growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R), such as cancer, are provided. Methods for inhibiting cell growth and proliferation, especially of tumor cells, and promoting apoptosis are also provided. Each of these methods employs the use of a heteroaryl-aryl urea compound as an antagonist for IGF-1R.
