via The need to stretch strained bank balances has hit pipelines once again. Rallybio and Monopar are the latest biotechs to rethink their spending, respectively stopping preclinical investment and pivoting to radiopharmaceuticals to stretch limited resources.

Rallybio shifted gears around 14 months ago, dropping its lead candidate for a second-generation asset in the same indication.
