The 31-year-old Leach claimed four wickets during England's 10-wicket victory over Ireland at Lord's, but developed low back symptoms during the match.
A subsequent scan on Sunday revealed a stress fracture in the lumbar region of the spine, which will rule the key spinner out of all five tests against Australia.
“England will announce a replacement for the Ashes series in due course,” an England statement said.
Leach has taken 124 wickets in 35 Tests overall with best match figures of 10-166.
The first Ashes Test starts June 16 at Edgbaston.?
