Our Story

Leukaemia Busters is a small research charity dedicated to finding a cure for childhood leukaemia, founded in 1989.

Based in Southampton General Hospital, Leukaemia Busters scientists are at the cutting edge of researching the various ways in which antibody-based drugs kill leukaemia and lymphoma cells.

Understanding these processes will give important insights into how antibodies can be used with maximum benefit for the treatment of patients with these diseases.

Background & History

Leukaemia Busters was founded in 1989 by three sets of parents, Wendy & Robert Sutcliffe, Julie & Paul Daws and Drs David and Bee Flavell, whose children at that time were undergoing treatment at Southampton General Hospital for leukaemia or lymphoma.

One of these sets of parents, Drs David & Bee Flavell, were already medical research scientists working on developing monoclonal antibodies for the diagnosis of leukaemia and lymphoma in their laboratories at Southampton General Hospital and it was their vision to fund research which would take those antibodies and use them for the targeted treatment of the very disease afflicting their only child, Simon.

So Leukaemia Buters was born from an urgent medical need and a shared common vision in which leukaemia and lymphoma could be easily and effectively treated by antibodies without the nasty and potentially life threatening side effects of conventional chemotherapy that the founding parent’s children had to endure.

Today that dream has started to turn to reality with antibody-based drugs now in commom clinical use for a variety of cancers including lymphoma and leukaemia.

Leukaemia Busters is proud to have played a role in this but we recognize that there is still much more research yet to be done to ensure that such antibody treatments are made maximally effective for all types of leukaemia and lymphoma.
