From the brink of collapse in early 2023, Philadelphia-based Context Therapeutics has staged one of biotech’s most remarkable turnarounds by boldly pivoting away from its original women’s oncology lead program—halted due to safety concerns—to a cutting-edge portfolio of T cell-engaging bispecific antibodies targeting solid tumors. With just a dozen employees, the company leveraged a quietly developed backup asset, CTIM-76, raised $100 million in fresh capital, and transformed itself from a single-asset outfit with a shrinking runway into a multi-asset powerhouse advancing first-in-human trials and acquiring promising clinical-stage bispecifics. Context’s story isn’t just about science; it’s a masterclass in survival, strategic optionality, operational discipline, and navigating one of biotech’s most brutal landscapes.
