Lead Program: CTIM-76, a Claudin 6 (CLDN6) x CD3 Bispecific Antibody Executive Summary Context Therapeutics Inc. - March 20243 Lead Asset CTIM-76 is a potentially best-in-class CLDN6 T cell engaging (TCE) bispecific antibody • CLDN6 enriched in a wide range of cancers, but absent or expressed at low levels in normal adult tissue • CTIM-76 is highly selective for CLDN6 • CTIM-76 exhibits excellent preclinical efficacy and tolerability • IND on track for end of March 2024 Future Development Plan Phase 1 trial to focus on CLDN6-positive gynecologic and testicular cancers • Prevalence screen identifies CLDN6 expression in ~50% of ovarian and endometrial, and ~95% of testicular cancers • Clinical proof of concept achieved with BNT211 CART, highlighting the potential for TCE in reproductive cancer1,2 • Reproductive cancer focus creates clinical efficiencies for CTIM-76 program • Potential to expand clinical footprint once competitors establish proof of concept in other tumor types (e.g., NSCLC) TCE Gaining Momentum Recent TCE clinical data demonstrates promising efficacy and safety • Clinical activity across a broad range of targets, including DLL3, PSMA, and STEAP1 • Clinical activity across multiple tumor types, including SCLC, mCRPC, and neuroendocrine • Low rates Grade ≥ 3 cytokine release syndrome (CRS) 1 Reproductive cancers include endometrial, ovarian, and testicular ; 2 Mackensen, ESMO 2023 SCLC = small cell lung cancer ; NSCLC = non- small cell lung cancer; mCRPC = metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer


 
CTIM-76: Claudin 6 x CD3 T cell Engaging (TCE) Bispecific Antibody Established bispecific format • Highly selective CLDN6 binding fragment antibody-binding (Fab) arm • Immunostimulatory CD3 binding single-chain fragment variable (scFv) domain is functionally monovalent to avoid aberrant T-cell activation • The fragment crystallizable region (Fc region) is the tail region of an antibody that interacts with cell surface receptors called Fc receptors. A mutation has been inserted into the Fc domain to silence the Fc domain function and avoid T-cell activation by Fc-gamma receptor positive cells Potentially wide therapeutic window • T-cell dependent cellular cytotoxicity with no or minimal activation of circulating cytokines • Humanized CLDN6 and CD3 binding domains Ease of manufacturing • IgG backbone is highly stable and enables high yield Executive Summary Context Therapeutics Inc. - March 20244 α-CLDN6 Fab α-CD3 scFv IgG1 backbone Silenced Fc
