Native IGF-1 circulates largely bound to a family of IGF-binding proteins rather than free. They regulate how much is available to act at any moment, extending its half-life while limiting immediate availability.
In cell culture that regulation is an obstacle. Binding proteins present in the medium, or secreted by the cells themselves, sequester added IGF-1 and make the effective concentration something other than what was added.
The arginine substitution at position 3 reduces affinity for the binding proteins. The N-terminal extension — the "Long" in the name — adds to that effect.
The result is an analogue less readily sequestered, which makes the concentration applied in a culture experiment closer to the concentration acting. That is the reason the analogue exists: it is a research tool designed around a specific experimental problem.
