This invention relates to human antibodies that bind to human insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-IR), to derivatives of these antibodies (Fabs, single chain antibodies, bi-specific antibodes, or fusion proteins), and to uses of the antibodies and derivatives in therapeutic, and diagnostic methods. The invention relates to nucleic acids encoding the anti-IGF-IR, methods of generating the antibodies and expression. The invention further relates to combination therapies using ant-IGF-IR antibodies with anti-neoplastic drugs.
