Our Science

Next generation CAR T-cell therapy to revolutionise the technology in which immune cells, called T-cells, are reprogrammed so they can recognise and destroy cancer cells.

Lateral CAR T-Cell Platform

Founded to translate 20 years of pioneering Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell (CAR-T) research led by Dr John Maher at King's College London (KCL), Leucid Bio has developed a proprietary Lateral CAR platform that builds upon Dr Maher’s novel  novel CAR-T model  in which the CAR structure has been redesigned to recapitulate the lateral distribution of signalling domains as observed in natural immune receptors. This technology gives properties to the CAR-T enabling them to consistently outperform previous generations of CAR-T therapies in pre-clinical studies; enhancing T-cell potency and generating a persistent long-term response with reduced toxicity.

LEU011 is an autologous, lateral CAR-T targeting NKG2D stress ligands. NKG2D ligands are expressed on more than 80% of human tumour cells, positioning LEU011 as a novel CAR-T for the potential treatment of multiple cancers.
