The invention provides a grafted antibody, or functional fragment thereof,
comprising one or more complementarity determining regions (CDRs) having
at least one amino acid substitution in one or more CDRs of a heavy chain
CDR, where the grafted antibody or functional fragment thereof has
specific binding activity for a cryptic collagen epitope. The invention
also provides methods of using an antibody having specific binding
activity for a cryptic collagen epitope, including methods of inhibiting
angiogenesis, tumor growth, and metastasis.
