Bicycle Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing a novel class of medicines, referred to as Bicycle® molecules, for diseases that are underserved by existing therapeutics. Bicycle molecules are fully synthetic short peptides constrained with small molecule scaffolds to form two loops that stabilize their structural geometry. This constraint facilitates target binding with high affinity and selectivity, making Bicycle molecules attractive candidates for drug development. The company is evaluating BT8009, a Bicycle® Toxin Conjugate (BTC®) targeting Nectin-4, a well-validated tumor antigen; BT5528, a BTC targeting EphA2, a historically undruggable target; and BT7480, a Bicycle Tumor-Targeted Immune Cell Agonist® (Bicycle TICA®) targeting Nectin-4 and agonizing CD137, in company-sponsored clinical trials. Additionally, the company is developing Bicycle® Radio Conjugates (BRC™) for radiopharmaceutical use and, through various partnerships, is exploring the use of Bicycle® technology to develop therapies for diseases beyond oncology.
Bicycle Therapeutics is headquartered in Cambridge, UK, with many key functions and members of its leadership team located in Cambridge, MA.
Culture is key and all Bicycle employees actively embrace and role model our company values:
- We are Adventurous. We believe it’s the way to deliver extraordinary results for our patients.
- We are Dedicated to our Mission. You can’t change the world if you don’t have determination.
- We are One Team. We only succeed when we work together.

- Oversee the quality and performance of all DMPK activities including interactions with external CRO’s and internal project stakeholders.
- Work collaboratively with other core disciplines to support compound progression based on optimizing DMPK properties.
- Integrate data from multiple sources to inform on the understanding of bicyclic peptide distribution, metabolism and excretion.
- Work closely with in-vivo pharmacology to design experiments to understand preclinical pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (pk/pd) relationships.
- Work closely with discovery team and regulatory team to author and review DMPK related IND documents
- Managing DMPK budgets for CRO’s and monitoring CROs to ensure delivery of quality data on time.
- Support leadership of the Quantitative Pharmacology group and junior staff development
