RECONSTITUTED HUMAN ANTIBODY AGAINST HUMAN INTERLEUKIN 6 RECEPTOR.

摘要

A reconstituted human antibody against a human interleukin 6 receptor (IL-6R), which is composed of: (A) an L chain composed of (1) the C region of a human L chain and (2) the V region of an L chain comprising the framework region (FR) of a human L chain and the complementarity-determining region (CDR) of the L chain of a mouse monoclonal antibody against a human IL-6R, and (B) an H chain composed of (1) the C region of a human H chain and (2) the V region of an H chain comprising the FR of a human H chain and the CDR of the H chain of a mouse monoclonal antibody against a human IL-6R. Since most of the reconstituted human antibody originates in human antibodies and the CDR is lowly antigenic, this antibody is lowly antigenic against human and hence prospective as a therapeutic agent.
