Embodiment 1
[0381] Example 1: Humanization and affinity maturation of mouse antagonist anti-NGF antibody 911 maturation)
[0382] A. General method
[0383] The following general method was used in this example.
[0384] library generation
[0385] As Kay et al. (1996), Phage display of peptides and proteins: a laboratory manual , San Diego, Academic Press (see pages 277-291), libraries were generated by PCR cassette mutagenesis using degenerate oligonucleotides. An amino acid position was randomized to include 20 possible amino acids using the doping codon NNK. To randomize an amino acid position to contain only a subclass of amino acids with specific properties, dopant codons are used as described in Balint et al. (1993) Gene 137(1):109-18). Site-directed mutagenesis was performed using recombinant PCR as described in Innis et al., (1990) PCR protocols: A guide to methods and applications (see pages 177-183).

[0499] Example 2: Evaluation of Anti-NGF Antibody Using Mouse E13.5 Trigeminal Neuron Survival Assay NGF-blocking ability
[0500] The ability of Fab E3 or full-length antibody E3 to block NGF activity was assessed by measuring the ability of the antibodies to inhibit NGF-dependent survival of mouse E13.5 trigeminal neurons in vitro. The trigeminal ganglion consists of epidermal sensory neurons that innervate the facial area. Survival of mouse E13.5 trigeminal neurons is a sensitive assay to evaluate the NGF-blocking activity of anti-NGF antagonist antibodies, since NGF is required to support the survival of these neurons. For example, at saturating concentrations of NGF, survival was close to 100% after 48 hours of culture. In contrast, less than 5% of neurons survived after 48 hours in the absence of NGF.
[0501] Survival experiments were performed as follows: time-mated pregnant Swiss Webster female mice were euthanized by CO2 inhalation. Uterine homs were removed a...
Embodiment 3
[0512] Example 3: Evaluation of anti-NGF antibody E3 using mouse trigeminal and tubercle neuron survival assays specificity
[0513] Antibody inhibition of mouse E17 / 18 trigeminal neuron survival in vitro was measured by measuring saturating concentrations of NGF, NGF-associated neurotrophin NT3, or NGF-independent neurotrophic factor macrophage-stimulating protein (MSP) ability to evaluate the ability of antibody E3 to specifically block NGF activity. Survival of mouse E17 / 18 trigeminal neurons is a sensitive assay for evaluating the NGF-blocking activity of anti-NGF antagonist antibodies because at higher concentrations of NGF than are required to support the survival of E13.5 TG neurons NGF is required to support the survival of these neurons. The survival of these neurons was also supported by NT3 or MSP; therefore, the survival of these neurons was also a sensitive assay to assess whether anti-NGF antagonist antibodies also blocked NT3 or MSP.
