A reshaped antibody comprising: (A) L chains comprising: (1) a human C region, and (2) an L chain V region comprising human L chain FRs and L chain CDRs of a mouse monoclonal antibody; and (B) H chains comprising: (1) a human H chain C region, and (2) an H chain V region comprising human H chain FRs, and H chain CDRs of a mouse monoclonal antibody to human IL-6. Since the major portions of the reshaped human antibody are derived from human, and the mouse CDRs are less immunogenic, then the present reshaped human antibody is less immunogenic, and therefore inhibits information transfer by IL-6, and is promising as a therapeutic agent for diseases caused by IL-6. |
