FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

      This prospectus contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, including statements regarding LeukoSite's drug
development programs, clinical trials, receipt of regulatory approval, capital
needs, intellectual property, expectations and intentions.


                                      -2-


Forward-looking statements necessarily involve risks and uncertainties, and
LeukoSite's actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the
forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those set forth
below under "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this prospectus. The factors set
forth below under "Risk Factors" and other cautionary statements made in this
prospectus should be read and understood as being applicable to all related
forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this prospectus. We undertake
no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason,
even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.

RISK FACTORS

      INVESTING IN LEUKOSITE'S COMMON STOCK IS VERY RISKY. YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO
BEAR A COMPLETE LOSS OF YOUR INVESTMENT. YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE
FOLLOWING FACTORS, IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER INFORMATION IN THIS PROSPECTUS.

      OUR DRUG CANDIDATES MAY NOT PROVE TO BE SAFE AND EFFECTIVE IN HUMAN
CLINICAL TRIALS.

      We are currently testing three monoclonal antibody and two small molecule
products in human clinical trials. Clinical trials of drug candidates involve
the testing of potential therapeutic agents in humans to determine whether the
drug candidates are safe and effective and, if so, to what degree. Many drugs in
human clinical trials fail to demonstrate the desired safety and efficacy
characteristics. Drugs in later stages of clinical development may fail to show
the desired safety and efficacy traits despite having progressed through initial
human testing. The clinical trials of any of our drug candidates may not be
successful which may prevent us from commercializing the drug, substantially
impairing our business, financial condition and results of operations.

      OUR DRUG CANDIDATES ARE SUBJECT TO GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION AND PRODUCT
APPROVALS.

      Our products currently under development are subject to extensive and
rigorous regulation by the federal government, principally the FDA, and by state
and local governments. If we market these products abroad, foreign governments
may also impose export/import requirements and other restrictive regulations. We
must complete all appropriate regulatory clearance processes before
commercializing a product, which is lengthy and expensive. We cannot be sure
that we can obtain necessary regulatory approvals on a timely basis, if at all,
for any of the products we are currently developing, and all of the following
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations

      --    significant delays in obtaining or failing to obtain required
            approvals

      --    loss of previously obtained approvals

      --    failing to comply with existing or future regulatory requirements

      Complying with FDA regulatory requirements applicable to product
development and obtaining FDA approval can take a number of years, involves the
expenditure of substantial resources and is uncertain. Many products that
initially appear promising ultimately do not reach the market because they are
found to be unsafe or ineffective or cannot meet the FDA's other


                                      -3-


regulatory requirements. Moreover, it is possible that the current regulatory
framework could change or additional regulations could arise at any stage during
our product development, which may affect our ability to obtain approval as
anticipated, delay the submission or review of an application, or require
additional expenditures by LeukoSite.

      All of LeukoSite's product candidates will require FDA and foreign
government approvals for commercialization, none of which have been obtained.
LeukoSite and ILEX Oncology are required to file a Biologics Licensing
Application (BLA) with the FDA before beginning commercialization of
CAMPATH-Registered Trademark- in the United States and must also file for
marketing approval from other jurisdictions. We are not certain when,
independently or with our collaborative partners, we will submit any marketing
applications for our other monoclonal antibodies or small molecule antagonists
under development. We cannot guarantee that any studies will demonstrate that
the products are safe and effective for their intended uses, or that the FDA
will grant required approval on a timely basis, or at all, for
CAMPATH-Registered Trademark- or other product for any studied indications.

      Government regulations may cause delays in LeukoSite's marketing of
products for a considerable or indefinite time, which could impose costly
procedural requirements upon LeukoSite's activities. While we attempt to comply
with such applicable government regulations, larger companies or companies more
experienced in regulatory affairs may obtain a competitive advantage over us.
Delays in obtaining governmental regulatory approval could adversely affect our
marketing strategy as well as our ability to generate revenue from commercial
sales. Our inability to obtain marketing approval of our products on a timely
basis, or at all, would have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations.

      WE ARE IN THE EARLY STAGES OF PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT.

      Many of LeukoSite's research and development programs are at an early
stage of development. The FDA has not approved any of our product candidates. We
have limited experience in conducting preclinical and clinical trials.
Furthermore, even if we receive initially positive preclinical trial results,
such results do not mean that similar results will be obtained in the later
stages of drug development, such as additional preclinical trials or human
clinical testing. All of our potential drug candidates are prone to the risks of
failure inherent in pharmaceutical product development, including the
possibility that none of our drug candidates will or can

      --    be safe and effective

      --    otherwise meet applicable regulatory standards

      --    receive the necessary regulatory marketing approvals

      --    develop into commercially viable drugs

      --    be manufactured or produced economically and on a large scale

      --    be successfully marketed

      --    be reimbursed by government or private consumers


                                      -4-


      --    achieve customer acceptance

      In addition, third parties may preclude us from marketing our drugs
through enforcement of their proprietary rights. Or, third parties may succeed
in marketing equivalent or superior drug products. Our failure to develop safe,
commercially viable drugs would have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations.

      WE DEPEND ON OUR COLLABORATIVE PARTNERS.

      A key element of LeukoSite's strategy is to accelerate certain of its drug
discovery and development programs and to fund its capital requirements, in
part, through collaboration agreements with major pharmaceutical companies. We
currently have collaboration agreements with Warner-Lambert Company, Roche
Bioscience, Kyowa Hakko Kogyo, Ltd. and Genentech, Inc. Each of our partners has
the right, but not the obligation, to conduct preclinical and clinical trials of
the compounds developed during their collaboration with us and to develop and
commercialize any drug candidates resulting from their collaboration with us.
For example, under the Genentech collaboration agreement, Genentech has the
right, but not the obligation, to conduct Phase III clinical trials of our
LDP-02 monoclonal antibody product. Thus, the collaboration agreements allow our
collaborative partners significant discretion in electing whether to pursue the
development of any potential drug candidates. As a result, we cannot control the
amount and timing of the resources dedicated by our collaborative partners to
their respective collaborations with us.

      This also means that LeukoSite's right to receive revenues under the
collaboration agreements for drug development milestones or royalties,
co-promotion rights or profit-sharing on sales is dependent largely upon the
activities and the development, manufacturing and marketing resources of its
collaborative partners. As such

      --    our partners may not pursue the development and commercialization of
            compounds resulting from their collaboration with us

      --    any development or commercialization may not be successful even if
            our partners pursued such efforts

      --    we may not derive any royalty or product sales revenue from our
            collaborations

      Moreover, certain drug candidates discovered by LeukoSite may be
competitive with our partners' drugs or drug candidates. Accordingly, it is
possible that our collaborative partners will choose not to proceed with the
development of our drug candidates or that they will pursue their existing or
alternative technologies in preference to our drug candidates. We advise you
that

      --    our interests may not always coincide with those of our
            collaborative partners

      --    some of our collaborative partners could independently develop or
            develop with third parties drugs which compete with ours

      --    disagreements with our partners over rights to technology or other
            proprietary interests might occur, leading to delays in research or
            in the development and commercialization of certain product
            candidates (such disputes could also require or result in litigation
            or arbitration, which is time-consuming and expensive)


                                      -5-


      OUR AGREEMENTS WITH OUR COLLABORATIVE PARTNERS ARE TERMINABLE.

      LeukoSite relies on its collaborative partners to fund a substantial
portion of its research operations and clinical trials. Although each of the
collaboration agreements may be extended past its current term, we cannot be
sure that these contracts will be extended or renewed, or that any renewal, if
made, will be on terms favorable to us. The following table explains how some of
our major collaboration agreements can be terminated:

      AGREEMENT                           TERMINATION RIGHTS
- ---------------------------------------   --------------------------------------
Warner-Lambert Company (all agreements)   By either party upon breach by other
                                          party; at any time for any reason upon
                                          6 months written notice

Kyowa Hakko Kogyo, Ltd.                   By either party upon breach by other
                                          party; at any time upon 60 days
                                          written notice

Genentech, Inc.                           By either party upon breach by other
                                          party; at any time upon 9 months
                                          written notice

Roche BioScience                          By either party upon breach by other
                                          party and for such other reasons (by
                                          Roche BioScience) as set forth in the
                                          agreement

      In short, we cannot guarantee that any of the collaboration agreements
will remain in effect for its expected term. If any of the collaborative
partners terminates or breaches its agreement with LeukoSite, or fails to
conduct its collaborative activities in a timely manner, then the development or
commercialization of any drug candidate or research program with such partner
could be delayed or terminated. Alternatively, we may have to devote unexpected
and unbudgeted additional resources to such development or commercialization,
all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.

      WE HAVE A HISTORY OF LOSSES AND AN EXPECTATION OF FUTURE LOSSES.

      LeukoSite has incurred a net operating loss every year since it was
incorporated in May 1992, and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $57.5
million through June 30, 1999. LeukoSite expects to incur significant additional
operating losses over the next several years and expects cumulative losses to
increase substantially due to expanded research and development efforts,
preclinical and clinical trials and commercialization expenses. In 1999, we
expect that our only revenues will come from milestone payments and any other
amounts received under existing and future collaboration agreements, if any. It
is possible that we may not be able to

      --    successfully commercialize any of our products

      --    establish any additional collaborative relationships on terms
            acceptable to us


                                      -6-


      --    maintain the current collaboration agreements in effect

      --    achieve the milestones that are required for us to receive funds
            from our current collaborative partners

      LeukoSite's ability to generate revenue or achieve profitability is
dependent in part on its and its collaborative partners' ability to complete the
development of drug candidates successfully, to obtain regulatory approvals for
drug candidates and to manufacture and commercialize any resulting drugs. We
cannot provide assurance that we will successfully identify, develop,
commercialize, manufacture and market any products, obtain required regulatory
approvals or achieve profitability.

      WE HAVE SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT COSTS AND ARE UNCERTAIN AS TO THE
AVAILABILITY OF FUTURE FUNDING.

      LeukoSite will require substantial additional funds in order to finance
its drug discovery and development programs, fund operating expenses, pursue
regulatory clearances, and prosecute and defend its intellectual property
rights. We depend heavily upon our collaborative partners for research and
clinical trials funding and we cannot be sure that our existing collaboration
agreements will provide the necessary funding to meet our operating expenses.

      LeukoSite intends to seek additional funding through public or private
financing or collaboration or other arrangements with collaborative partners. If
we raise additional funds by issuing new equity securities, this may result in
further dilution to our existing stockholders. In addition, any future investors
may demand (and we may have to grant) rights superior to those of our existing
stockholders in order to obtain additional funds. Still, we cannot be sure that
additional financing will be available, in the first instance, from any sources
or, even if available, that such funds will be available on acceptable terms.

      OUR PATENT AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS COULD AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO COMPETE.

      LeukoSite's success will depend in part on its ability to obtain United
States and foreign patent protection for its drug candidates and processes,
preserve its trade secrets, and operate without infringing the proprietary
rights of third parties. We place considerable importance on obtaining patent
protection for significant new technologies, products and processes. Legal
standards relating to the validity of patents covering pharmaceutical and
biotechnological inventions, and the scope of claims made under such patents,
are still developing. Our patent position is highly uncertain and involves
complex legal and factual questions. We cannot be certain that the named
applicants or inventors of the subject matter covered by our patent applications
or patents (whether directly owned by us or licensed to us) were the first to
invent or the first to file patent applications for such inventions. Third
parties may challenge, infringe upon, circumvent or seek to invalidate existing
or future patents owned by or licensed to us. A court or other agency with
jurisdiction may find our patents unenforceable. Even if we have valid patents,
these patents still may not provide sufficient protection against competitive
products or other commercially valuable products or processes.

      If a third party claims the same or overlapping subject matter as we have
claimed in a United States patent application or patent, then we may decide or
be required to participate in interference proceedings in the United States
Patent and Trademark Office in order to determine who invented the subject
matter first. If we lost such an interference proceeding, then we would


                                      -7-


be deprived of the patent protection we previously sought or obtained. Indeed,
regardless of whether we win or lose in such proceedings, we would still incur
substantial costs.

      In addition to patent protection, LeukoSite relies on trade secrets,
proprietary know-how, and confidentiality provisions in agreements with our
collaborative partners, employees and consultants to protect our intellectual
property. We also rely on invention assignment provisions in agreements with
employees and certain consultants. It is possible that these agreements could be
breached or that we might not have adequate remedies for any such breaches.
Third parties may learn of or independently discover our trade secrets,
proprietary know-how and intellectual property, which could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

      LeukoSite's product candidates LDP-01, LDP-02 and CAMPATH-Registered
Trademark- are humanized monoclonal antibodies. We are aware that both the U.S.
Patent and Trademark Office and certain foreign governments have issued patents
to third parties which relate to certain humanized antibodies, products useful
for making humanized antibodies, and processes for making and using humanized
antibodies. We may choose to seek or be required to seek licenses under certain
of these patents.

      We are also aware of third party applications in the United States and
abroad relating to certain humanized monoclonal antibodies, products useful for
making humanized antibodies, and processes for making and using humanized
antibodies. LeukoSite may choose to seek or be required to seek licenses under
some or all of the patents which might issue from these patent applications.

      INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LITIGATION COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS.

      There is significant and widespread litigation in the pharmaceutical and
biotechnology industry regarding patents and proprietary rights. LeukoSite may
need to assert claims of infringement, enforce its patents, protect trade
secrets, know-how or other intellectual property rights, or determine the scope
or validity of proprietary rights of third parties. Conversely, we may need to
defend against claims of infringement by third parties. We cannot guarantee that
any of our patents will ultimately be held valid or that our efforts to assert
or defend any patents, trade secrets, know-how or other intellectual property
rights would be successful. Similarly, we cannot guarantee that our products or
processes will not be held to infringe the patents or other intellectual
property rights of others. Uncertainties emanating from the initiation and
continuation of any patent or related litigation could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

      The expenses of intellectual property litigation or other similar
proceedings would be likely to be substantial, and could have a material adverse
effect on LeukoSite's business, financial condition and results of operations.
An adverse outcome in such litigation or proceeding could subject LeukoSite to
significant liabilities or require LeukoSite to cease certain activities. If any
of our present or future products or processes is alleged or determined to
infringe upon the patents or impermissibly use the intellectual property of
others, we may choose or be required to obtain licenses from third parties under
their patents or proprietary rights. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to
obtain those licenses on acceptable terms, if at all. In such event, we would be
severely restricted or prohibited from the development, manufacture and sale of
our drug candidates.


                                      -8-


      INTENSE COMPETITION CREATES RISKS.

      The biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are intensely competitive.
LeukoSite has many competitors both in the United States and abroad, including
major, multinational pharmaceutical and chemical companies, specialized
biotechnology firms and universities and other research institutions. Many of
our competitors have greater financial and other resources, such as larger
research and development staffs and more effective marketing and manufacturing
organizations. Our competitors may succeed in developing or licensing on an
exclusive basis technologies and drugs that are more effective or less costly
than any which we are currently developing, which could render our technology
and future drug products obsolete and noncompetitive. It is possible for our
competitors to obtain FDA or other regulatory approvals for drug candidates
before we can. In general, companies that begin commercial sale of their drugs
before their competitors have a significant competitive advantage in the
marketplace, including the ability to obtain certain patent and FDA marketing
exclusivity rights that would delay our ability to market certain products. Even
if our drugs or drug products are approved for sale, we cannot assure our
ability to compete successfully with competitors' existing products or products
under development.

      WE RELY ON CONTRACT MANUFACTURERS AND LACK MANUFACTURING EXPERIENCE
OURSELVES.

      LeukoSite depends on third parties to manufacture its product candidates
and is aware of only a limited number of manufacturers which it believes has the
ability and capability to manufacture its drug candidates for preclinical and
clinical trials. LeukoSite and ILEX have an agreement with Boehringer Ingleheim
for the production of CAMPATH-Registered Trademark- for our clinical trials and
for any commercial sales. If we were required to transfer manufacturing
processes to other third-party manufacturers, then we could experience
significant delays in supply. If, at any time, we are unable to maintain,
develop or contract for manufacturing capabilities on acceptable terms, then our
ability to conduct preclinical and clinical trials with our drug candidates will
be adversely affected, resulting in delays in the submission of drug candidates
for regulatory approvals. We have no experience in manufacturing and we
currently lack the facilities and personnel to manufacture products in
accordance with Good Manufacturing Practices as prescribed by the FDA or to
produce an adequate supply of compounds to meet future requirements for
preclinical and clinical trials.

      THERE ARE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE ILEX JOINT VENTURE.

      LeukoSite has entered into a joint venture with ILEX for the development
and commercialization of CAMPATH-Registered Trademark- for the treatment of
chronic lymphocytic leukemia. As part of the joint venture, we are obligated to
share fifty percent of the development costs of CAMPATH-Registered Trademark-.
If LeukoSite fails for any reason to make a required capital contribution to the
joint venture, then ILEX may gain control of the management of the joint venture
and become entitled to a greater share of the profits derived from product sales
of CAMPATH-Registered Trademark-. At the same time, if ILEX fails for any reason
to make a required capital contribution to the joint venture, then we may be
required to make additional capital contributions to the joint venture to
maintain the desired level of development activities by the joint venture. It is
possible that we may not have the resources to compensate for any failure by
ILEX to make any capital contributions in its stead and the joint venture may
not be able to continue operations with lesser funding. In addition, after the
earlier of a change in control (as defined in the joint venture agreement
between LeukoSite and ILEX) of ILEX or LeukoSite and October 2, 2000, either
company has the right to purchase the other


                                      -9-


company's ownership of the joint venture in the event of an unresolved deadlock.
As a result, LeukoSite may never be able to recoup its investment in the joint
venture.

      RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE COULD RENDER PRODUCTS OBSOLETE.

      Biotechnology and related pharmaceutical technology have undergone and are
subject to rapid and significant change. LeukoSite expects that the technologies
associated with biotechnology research and development will continue along this
rapid path. Our success will depend in large part on our ability to maintain a
competitive position in the rapidly changing environment. Because of the rapid
changes in technology, our compounds, products or processes may become obsolete
before we can recover the expenses incurred in developing such compounds,
products or processes. We cannot assure that we can maintain our technological
competitiveness.

      WE DEPEND ON KEY PERSONNEL.

      We believe that our ability to successfully implement our business
strategy is highly dependent on our management and scientific team. None of our
executive officers has employment agreements with us. Losing the services of one
or more of these individuals might hinder our ability to achieve our development
objectives. We are highly dependent on our ability to hire and retain qualified
scientific and technical personnel. The competition for these employees is
intense. We cannot be sure that we can continue to hire and retain the qualified
personnel needed for our business. Loss of the services of or the failure to
recruit key scientific and technical personnel could adversely affect our
business, operating results and financial condition.

      CERTAIN EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS HOLD A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF OUR STOCK.

      LeukoSite's officers, directors and principal stockholders own or control
approximately 47.7% of the outstanding common stock. As a result, these
stockholders, acting together, will have the ability to control most matters
requiring approval by the stockholders.

      WE HAVE NOT DECLARED ANY DIVIDENDS.

      We have never declared or paid cash dividends. We do not intend to declare
or pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

aggregate of 1,487,548 shares of common stock.

                                 USE OF PROCEEDS

      LeukoSite will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of
common stock offered by the selling stockholders hereunder.

                              SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

      The Selling Stockholders covered by this prospectus are persons who
received LeukoSite common stock in connection with (one or more of the
following) (1) the private placement of LeukoSite's common stock which occurred
on July 1, 1998, (2) the acquisition (by merger) by LeukoSite of CytoMed, Inc.,
(3) the acquisition (by merger) by LeukoSite of ProScript, Inc., and/or (4) the
private placement of LeukoSite's common stock which occurred on July 20, 1999 or
who were entitled to have shares registered in connection with piggyback
registration rights previously granted by LeukoSite.

      1998 Private Placement. Under a Registration Rights Agreement dated July
1, 1998 among LeukoSite and certain selling stockholders, we agreed to register
the LeukoSite common stock sold to those selling stockholders in the private
placement and to use our best efforts to keep the Registration Statement
effective for two years, or until all of the shares are sold under the
Registration Statement, whichever comes first.

      CytoMed Merger. Under an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization
dated January 4, 1999 among LeukoSite, LeukoSite Merger Corporation, a
wholly-owned subsidiary of LeukoSite, and CytoMed, Inc., we agreed to register
the LeukoSite common stock to be issued as consideration for the merger of
CytoMed with and into LeukoSite Merger Corporation for the accounts of the
former shareholders of CytoMed. We also agreed to use our best efforts to keep
the Registration Statement effective for two years, or until all of the shares
are sold under the Registration Statement, whichever comes first.

      ProScript Merger. Under an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization
dated June 22, 1999 among LeukoSite, ProScript Acquisition Co., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of LeukoSite, ProScript, Inc., HealthCare Ventures III, L.P. and
HealthCare Ventures IV, L.P., the shares of LeukoSite common stock issued in
connection therewith were required to be registered upon written notice to
LeukoSite or as a piggyback on any other registration statement being filed by
the Company.


                                      -11-


      1999 Private Placement. Under two separate Registration Rights Agreements
each dated July 20, 1999 between LeukoSite and each of Perseus Capital LLC and
HealthCare Ventures V, L.P., we agreed to register the LeukoSite common stock
issued in connection with the private placement and to use our best efforts to
keep the Registration Statement effective for two years, or until all of the
shares are sold under the Registration Statement, whichever comes first.

      Our registration of the shares of common stock hereunder does not
necessarily mean that the selling stockholders will sell all or any of the
shares. The following tables set forth certain information regarding the
beneficial ownership of the common stock as of July 28, 1999, by each of the
selling stockholders. The information provided in the tables below with respect
to each selling stockholder has been obtained from such selling stockholder
and/or estimated by the Company (in cases in which such selling stockholders did
not provide updated information) based upon, where applicable, our calculation
of such ownership under the applicable merger agreement(s). Except as otherwise
disclosed below, none of the selling stockholders has, or within the past three
years has had, any position, office or other material relationship with the
Company. Because the selling stockholders may sell all or some portion of the
shares of common stock beneficially owned by them, only an estimate (assuming
each selling stockholder sells all of its shares offered hereby) can be given as
to the number of shares of common stock that will be beneficially owned by the
selling stockholders after this offering. In addition, the selling stockholders
may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, or may sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of, at any time or from time to time since the date on which
they last provided the information regarding the shares of common stock
beneficially owned by them, all or a portion of the shares of common stock
beneficially owned by them in transactions exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. Certain selling stockholders have
not provided updated information to us regarding the shares of common stock
beneficially owned by them.

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

      The shares of common stock may be sold from time to time by the selling
stockholders in one or more transactions at fixed prices, at market prices at
the time of sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale or at
negotiated prices. The selling stockholders may offer their shares of common
stock in one or more of the following transactions:

      --    on any national securities exchange or quotation service on which
            the common stock may be listed or quoted at the time of sale,
            including the Nasdaq National Stock Market,

      --    in the over-the-counter market,

      --    in private transactions,

      --    through options,


                                      -18-


      --    by pledge to secure debts and other obligations, or

      --    a combination of any of the above transactions.

      If required, we will distribute a supplement to this prospectus to
describe material changes in the terms of the offering.

      The shares of common stock described in this prospectus may be sold from
time to time directly by the selling stockholders. Alternatively, the selling
stockholders may from time to time offer shares of common stock to or through
underwriters, broker/dealers or agents. The selling stockholders and any
underwriters, broker/dealers or agents that participate in the distribution of
the shares of common stock may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning
of the Securities Act of 1933. Any profits on the resale of shares of common
stock and any compensation received by any underwriter, broker/dealer or agent
may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities
Act of 1933.

      Any shares covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to
Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 may be sold under Rule 144 rather than
pursuant to this prospectus. The selling stockholders may not sell all of the
shares. The selling stockholders may transfer, devise or gift such shares by
other means not described in this prospectus.

      To comply with the securities laws of certain jurisdictions the common
stock must be offered or sold only through registered or licensed brokers or
dealers. In addition, in certain jurisdictions, the common stock may not be
offered or sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale or an
exemption is available and complied with.

      Under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, any person engaged in a
distribution of the common stock may not simultaneously engage in market-making
activities with respect to the common stock for nine business days prior to the
start of the distribution. In addition, each selling stockholder and any other
person participating in a distribution will be subject to the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of common
stock by the selling stockholders or any such other person. These factors may
affect the marketability of the common stock and the ability of brokers or
dealers to engage in market-making activities.

      All expenses of this registration will be paid by LeukoSite. These
expenses include the SEC's filing fees and fees under state securities or "blue
sky" laws. The selling stockholders will pay all underwriting discounts and
selling commissions, if any.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS

      The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

                  (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are
            being made pursuant to this Registration Statement, a post-effective
            amendment to this Registration Statement to include any material
            information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously
            disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to
            such information in this Registration Statement;

                  (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under
            the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall
            be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the
            securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at
            that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
            thereof.

                  (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
            amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold
            at the termination of the offering.


                                      II-2


      The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15 (d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial BONA FIDE offering thereof.

      Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions described in Item 15 above,
or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

                                   SIGNATURES

      Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
the Registrant, LeukoSite, Inc., certifies that it has reasonable grounds to
believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-3 and has
duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the
undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Cambridge, Commonwealth
of Massachusetts, on this 17th day of August, 1999.
