  • Patent number: 11897949
    Abstract: This disclosure provides compositions and methods for controlling pain. In particular the disclosure provides a method for controlling pain comprising co-administration of an NGF antagonist and a TNF? antagonist. The NGF antagonist and the TNF? antagonist can be separate molecules or part of a multifunctional polypeptide, e.g., a multispecific binding molecule that comprises an NGF antagonist domain and a TNF? antagonist domain. This disclosure also provides multifunctional polypeptides, e.g., multispecific binding molecules, comprising an NGF antagonist domain, and a TNF? antagonist domain. The method provides improved pain control. Administration of an NGF antagonist and a TNF? antagonist as provided herein can control pain in the subject more effectively than an equivalent amount of the NGF antagonist or the TNF? antagonist administered alone.
