Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Organization, Business and Basis of Presentation | Note 1— Organization, Business and Basis of Presentation: Organization and Business CorMedix Inc. (“CorMedix” or the “Company”) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing therapeutic products for the prevention and treatment of infectious and inflammatory diseases. In 2013, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, CorMedix Europe GmbH and in May 2020, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, CorMedix Spain, S.L.U. The Company’s primary focus is on the development of its lead product candidate, DefenCath™, for potential commercialization in the United States (“U.S.”) and other key markets. The Company has in-licensed the worldwide rights to develop and commercialize DefenCath/ Neutrolin®, which is a novel anti-infective solution (a formulation of taurolidine 13.5 mg/ml and heparin 1000 USP Units/ml) intended for the reduction and prevention of catheter-related infections and thrombosis in patients requiring central venous catheters (“CVCs”) in clinical settings such as hemodialysis, total parenteral nutrition and oncology. Infection and thrombosis represent key complications among hemodialysis, total parenteral nutrition and cancer patients with CVCs. These complications can lead to treatment delays and increased costs to the healthcare system when they occur due to hospitalizations, need for intravenous (“IV”) antibiotic treatment, long-term anticoagulation therapy, removal/replacement of the CVC, related treatment costs and increased mortality. The name DefenCath is the U.S. proprietary name conditionally approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), while the name Neutrolin is currently used in the European Union (“EU”) and other territories where the Company has received CE-Mark approval for the commercial distribution of Neutrolin as a catheter lock solution (“CLS”) regulated as a medical device. In January 2015, the FDA designated DefenCath as a Qualified Infectious Disease Product (“QIDP”) for prevention of catheter-related blood stream infections (“CRBSIs”) in patients with end stage renal disease receiving hemodialysis through a central venous catheter. Catheter-related blood stream infections and clotting can be life-threatening. The QIDP designation provides five years of market exclusivity in addition to the five years granted for a New Chemical Entity (“NCE”) upon approval of a New Drug Application (“NDA”). In addition, in January 2015, the FDA granted Fast Track designation to DefenCath Catheter Lock Solution, a designation intended to facilitate development and expedite review of drugs that treat serious and life-threatening conditions so that the approved drug can reach the market expeditiously. The Fast Track designation of DefenCath provides the Company with the opportunity to meet with the FDA on a more frequent basis during the development process, and also ensures eligibility to request priority review of the marketing application. In December 2015, the Company launched its Phase 3 Prospective, Multicenter, Double-blind, Randomized, Active Control Study to Demonstrate Safety & Effectiveness of DefenCath/Neutrolin in Preventing Catheter-related Bloodstream Infection in Subjects on Hemodialysis for End Stage Renal Disease (“LOCK-IT-100”), in patients with hemodialysis catheters in the U.S. The clinical trial was designed to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of DefenCath compared to the standard of care for CLS, Heparin, in preventing CRBSIs. The primary endpoint for the trial assessed the incidence of CRBSI and time to CRBSI for each study subject. Secondary endpoints were catheter patency, which was defined as required use of tissue plasminogen activating factor, or tPA, or removal of catheter due to dysfunction, and removal of catheter for any reason. As previously agreed with the FDA, an interim efficacy analysis was performed when the first 28 potential CRBSI cases were identified in our LOCK-IT-100 study that occurred through early December 2017. Based on these first 28 cases, there was a highly statistically significant 72% reduction in CRBSI by DefenCath relative to the active control of heparin (p=0.0034). Because the pre-specified level of statistical significance was reached for the primary endpoint and efficacy had been demonstrated with no safety concerns, the LOCK-IT-100 study was terminated early. The study continued enrolling and treating subjects until study termination, and the final analysis was based on a total of 795 subjects. In a total of 41 cases, there was a 71% reduction in CRBSI by DefenCath relative to heparin, which was highly statistically significant (p=0.0006), with a good safety profile. The FDA granted the Company’s request for a rolling submission and review of the NDA which is designed to expedite the approval process for products being developed to address an unmet medical need. Although the FDA usually requires two pivotal clinical trials to provide substantial evidence of safety and effectiveness for approval of an NDA, the FDA will in some cases accept one adequate and well-controlled trial, where it is a large multicenter trial with a broad range of subjects and investigation sites with procedures to include trial quality that has demonstrated a clinically meaningful and statistically very persuasive effect on prevention of a disease with potentially serious outcome. In March 2020, the Company began the modular submission process for the NDA for DefenCath for the prevention of CRBSI in hemodialysis patients, and in August 2020, the FDA accepted for filing the DefenCath NDA. The FDA also granted the Company’s request for priority review, which provides for a six-month review period instead of the standard ten-month review period. As the Company announced in March 2021, the FDA informed in its Complete Response Letter (“CRL”) to the Company that it cannot approve the NDA for DefenCath in its present form. The FDA noted concerns at the third-party manufacturing facility after a review of records requested by the FDA and provided by the contract manufacturer (“CMO”). Additionally, the FDA is requiring a manual extraction study to demonstrate that the labeled volume can be consistently withdrawn from the vials despite an existing in-process control to demonstrate fill volume within specifications. In April 2021, the Company and the CMO met with the FDA to discuss proposed resolutions for the deficiencies identified in the CRL to the Company and the Post-Application Action Letter received by the CMO from the FDA for the NDA for DefenCath. There was an agreed upon protocol for the manual extraction study identified in the CRL, which now has been successfully completed. Addressing the FDA’s concerns regarding the qualification of the filling operation necessitated adjustments in the process and generation of additional data on operating parameters for manufacture of DefenCath. The Company and the CMO determined that additional process qualification is needed with subsequent validation to address these issues. The FDA stated that the review timeline would be determined when the NDA resubmission is received and that it expected all corrections to facility deficiencies to be complete at the time of resubmission so that all corrective actions may be verified during an onsite evaluation of the manufacturing facility in the next review cycle, if the FDA determines it will do an onsite evaluation. The Company and the CMO continue to work closely to ensure that the identified deficiencies are resolved prior to resubmission of the DefenCath NDA, but delays have been encountered at the CMO that are unrelated to DefenCath manufacturing activities. The timeline for CorMedix and the CMO to address deficiencies at the facility that are required for resubmission of the DefenCath NDA is uncertain at this time. Satisfactory resolution of these issues is required for approval of the DefenCath NDA. If an onsite inspection is required, the Company may encounter delays in obtaining FDA approval because the FDA is currently facing a backlog due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The FDA issued a guidance document on its plan to use voluntary remote interactive evaluations at facilities, including for a pre-approval inspection to assess a marketing application. The FDA will request the manufacturing facility to participate in a voluntary remote interactive evaluation, if the FDA believes it is appropriate. A manufacturing facility cannot request the remote interaction. The FDA expects the use of remote interactive evaluations should help the FDA operate within normal timeframes in spite of the Covid-19 pandemic. The FDA did not request additional clinical data and did not identify any deficiencies related to the data submitted on the efficacy or safety of DefenCath from LOCK-IT-100 in the CRL. In draft labeling discussed with the FDA, the FDA added that the initial approval will be for the limited population of patients with kidney failure receiving chronic hemodialysis through a central venous catheter. This is consistent with our request for approval pursuant to the Limited Population Pathway for Antibacterial and Antifungal Drugs (“LPAD”). LPAD, passed as part of the 21 st In March 2020, the Company was granted a deferral by the FDA under the Pediatric Research Equity Act (“PREA”), that requires sponsors to conduct pediatric studies for NDAs for a new active ingredient, such as taurolidine in DefenCath, unless a waiver or deferral is obtained from the FDA. A deferral acknowledges that a pediatric assessment is required but permits the applicant to submit the pediatric assessment after the submission of an NDA. The Company has made a commitment to conduct the pediatric study after approval of the NDA for use in adult hemodialysis patients. Pediatric studies for an approved product conducted under PREA may qualify for pediatric exclusivity, which if granted would provide an additional six months of marketing exclusivity. DefenCath would then have the potential to receive a total marketing exclusivity period of 10.5 years, including exclusivity pursuant to NCE and QIDP. The Company intends to pursue additional indications for DefenCath use as a CLS in populations with an unmet medical need that also represent a significant market opportunity. For example, the Company intends to pursue marketing authorization in the U.S. for use as a CLS to reduce CRBSIs in oncology and total parenteral nutrition patients using a central venous catheter. In addition to DefenCath, the Company is sponsoring a pre-clinical research collaboration for the use of taurolidine as a possible treatment for rare orphan pediatric tumors. In February 2018, the FDA granted orphan drug designation to taurolidine for the treatment of neuroblastoma in children. The Company may seek one or more strategic partners or other sources of capital to help develop and commercialize taurolidine for the treatment of neuroblastoma in children. The Company is also evaluating opportunities for the possible expansion of taurolidine as a platform compound for use in certain medical devices. Patent applications have been filed in several indications, including wound closure, surgical meshes, and wound management. In the European Union (“EU”), Neutrolin is regulated as a Class 3 medical device. In July 2013, the Company received CE Mark approval for Neutrolin. In December 2013, the Company commercially launched Neutrolin in Germany for the prevention of CRBSI, and maintenance of catheter patency in hemodialysis patients using a tunneled, cuffed central venous catheter for vascular access. To date, Neutrolin is registered and may be sold in certain European Union and Middle Eastern countries for such treatment. In September 2014, the TUV-SUD and The Medicines Evaluation Board of the Netherlands (“MEB”), granted a label expansion for Neutrolin to include use in oncology patients receiving chemotherapy, intravenous (“IV”) hydration and IV medications via CVC for the EU. In December 2014, the Company received approval from the Hessian District President in Germany to expand the label for these same expanded indications. The expansion also adds patients receiving medication and IV fluids via CVC in intensive or critical care units (cardiac care unit, surgical care unit, neonatal critical care unit, and urgent care centers). An indication for use in total parenteral nutrition was also approved. In September 2019, the Company’s registration with the Saudi Arabia Food and Drug Administration, or the SFDA, expired. As a result, the Company cannot sell Neutrolin in Saudi Arabia. The Company intends to complete the documentation required to renew its registration with the SFDA, however, the Company cannot predict how long the renewal process will take. There is no assurance that the registration will be renewed by the SFDA. The novel coronavirus has been declared a pandemic and has spread to multiple global regions. The outbreak and government measures taken in response have also had a significant impact, both direct and indirect, on businesses and commerce, as worker shortages have occurred; supply chains have been disrupted; facilities and production have been suspended; and demand for certain goods and services, such as medical services and supplies, has spiked, while demand for other goods and services, such as travel, has fallen. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, “shelter in place” orders and other public health guidance measures have been implemented across much of the United States, Europe and Asia, including in the locations of the Company’s offices, clinical trial sites, key vendors and partners. Such “shelter in place” orders were previously lifted, at least partially, in many locations. However, an increase in the spread of COVID-19 and variants, including the Delta variant, which may affect the spread or severity of one or more successive waves of the virus, has led, and may continue to lead, to the re-imposition by many nations and U.S. of quarantine requirements for travelers from other regions and may lead to the re-imposition of “shelter-in-place” or other similar orders. The Company’s program timelines may be negatively affected by COVID-19, which could materially and adversely affect its business, financial conditions and results of operations. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary to fairly state the interim results. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2021 or for any subsequent period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto of the Company which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 30, 2021. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 has been derived from the audited financial statements included in such Form 10-K. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 which removes certain exceptions to the general principles of the accounting for income taxes and also improves consistent application of and simplification of other areas when accounting for income taxes. The guidance was effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021. Early adoption was permitted. This adoption on January 1, 2021 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2— Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: Liquidity and Uncertainties The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. To date, the Company’s commercial operations have not generated sufficient revenues to enable profitability. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $237.9 million, and incurred net losses from operations of $8.6 million and $6.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively and $20.4 million and $15.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company currently estimates that as of September 30, 2021 it has sufficient cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments on hand to fund its operations at least through 2022, after taking into consideration the costs for re-submission of the NDA and initial preparations for the commercial launch for DefenCath. In June 2021, the Company received approximately $1.3 million, net of expenses, from the sale of its unused New Jersey net operating losses (“NOL”) eligible for sale under the State of New Jersey’s Economic Development Authority’s New Jersey Technology Business Tax Certificate Transfer program (“NJEDA Program”). The NJEDA Program allowed the Company to sell approximately $1.3 million of its total $1.3 million in available NOL tax benefits for the state fiscal year 2020. The Company’s continued operations will depend on its ability to raise additional capital through various potential sources, such as equity and/or debt financings, strategic relationships, potential strategic transactions or out-licensing of its products in order to commercially launch DefenCath upon NDA approval and until profitability is achieved, if ever. Management can provide no assurances that such financing or strategic relationships will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. As of September 30, 2021, the Company has $150.0 million available under its new shelf registration filed on August 12, 2021 for the issuance of equity, debt or equity-linked securities and $50.0 million available under the ATM program relating to its shelf registration statement filed in November 2020 (See Note 3). The Company’s operations are subject to a number of other factors that can affect its operating results and financial condition. Such factors include, but are not limited to: the ability to obtain regulatory approval to market the Company’s products; ability to manufacture successfully; competition from products manufactured and sold or being developed by other companies; the price of, and demand for the Company products; the Company’s ability to negotiate favorable licensing or other manufacturing and marketing agreements for its products; the results of clinical testing and trial activities of the Company’s product candidates; and the Company’s ability to raise capital to support its operations. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Basis of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, CorMedix Europe GmbH and CorMedix Spain, S.L.U., its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Financial Instruments Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit and other interest-bearing accounts, the balances of which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The following table is the reconciliation of the accounting standard that modifies certain aspects of the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments as shown on the Company’s consolidated statement of cash flows: September 30, December 31, Cash and cash equivalents $ 66,316,229 $ 41,905,469 Restricted cash, short-term and long-term 236,732 191,314 Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 66,552,961 $ 42,096,783 The appropriate classification of marketable securities is determined at the time of purchase and reevaluated as of each balance sheet date. Investments in marketable debt classified as available-for-sale and equity securities are reported at fair value. Fair value is determined using quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities or quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Changes in fair value that are considered temporary are reported in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Realized gains and losses, amortization of premiums and discounts and interest and dividends earned are included in other income (expense). For declines in the fair value of equity securities that are considered other-than-temporary, impairment losses are charged to other income (expense), net. The Company considers available evidence in evaluating potential impairments of its investments, including the duration and extent to which fair value is less than cost. There were no deemed permanent impairments at September 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020. The Company’s marketable securities are highly liquid and consist of U.S. government agency securities, high-grade corporate obligations and commercial paper with original maturities of more than 90 days. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, all of the Company’s investments had contractual maturities of less than one year. As of September 30, 2021, no allowance for credit loss was recorded. The following table summarizes the amortized cost, unrealized gains and losses and the fair value at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020: September 30, 2021: Amortized Gross Gross Fair Value Money Market Funds included in Cash Equivalents $ 16,977,646 $ - $ - $ 16,977,646 Corporate Securities 4,754,847 (1,274 ) 25 4,753,598 Commercial Paper 899,370 - 234 899,604 Subtotal 5,654,217 (1,274 ) 259 5,653,202 Total September 30, 2021 $ 22,631,863 $ (1,274 ) $ 259 $ 22,630,848 December 31, 2020: Money Market Funds included in Cash Equivalents $ 3,182,762 $ (81 ) $ 8 $ 3,182,689 Corporate Securities 3,565,501 (1,005 ) 3 3,564,499 Commercial Paper 879,501 - 72 879,573 Subtotal 4,445,002 (1,005 ) 75 4,444,072 Total December 31, 2020 $ 7,627,764 $ (1,086 ) $ 83 $ 7,626,761 Fair Value Measurements The Company’s financial instruments recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investment securities, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying value of certain financial instruments, primarily cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their estimated fair values based upon the short-term nature of their maturity dates. The Company categorizes its financial instruments into a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the category level is based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument. Financial assets recorded at fair value on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets are categorized as follows: ● Level 1 inputs—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. ● Level 2 inputs— Significant other observable inputs (e.g., quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar items in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable such as interest rate and yield curves, and market-corroborated inputs). ● Level 3 inputs—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are supported by little or no market activity and are valued based on management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The following table provides the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020: September 30, 2021: Carrying Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Money Market Funds and Cash Equivalents $ 16,977,646 $ 16,977,646 $ - $ - Corporate Securities 4,753,598 - 4,753,598 - Commercial Paper 899,604 - 899,604 - Subtotal 5,653,202 - 5,653,202 $ - Total September 30, 2021 $ 22,630,848 $ 16,977,646 $ 5,653,202 $ - December 31, 2020: Money Market Funds and Cash Equivalents $ 3,182,689 $ 3,182,689 $ - $ - Corporate Securities 3,564,499 - 3,564,499 - Commercial Paper 879,573 - 879,573 - Subtotal 4,444,072 - 4,444,072 - Total December 31, 2020 $ 7,626,761 $ 3,182,689 $ 4,444,072 $ - Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars (“USD”), the reporting currency of the Company. For the financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries, whose functional currency is the EURO, foreign currency asset and liability amounts, are translated into USD at end-of-period exchange rates. Foreign currency income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the period in which the income and expenses were recognized. Translation gains and losses are included in other comprehensive income (loss). The Company has intercompany loans between the parent company based in New Jersey and its German subsidiary. The intercompany loans outstanding are not expected to be repaid in the foreseeable future and unrealized foreign exchange movements related to long-term intercompany loans are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). Foreign currency exchange transaction gain (loss) is the result of re-measuring transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity recording the transaction. Restricted Cash As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has restricted cash in connection with the patent and utility model infringement proceedings against TauroPharm (see Note 4). The Company was required by the District Courts of Mannheim to provide security deposit to cover legal fees in the event TauroPharm is entitled to reimbursement of these costs. The Company furthermore had to provide a deposit for the first and second instances, respectively, in connection with the unfair competition proceedings in Cologne. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, approximately $48,000 was released by the court for the reimbursement of legal fees and other costs which was removed from restricted cash. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, restricted cash in connection with the patent and utility model infringement proceedings were $134,000 and $191,000, respectively. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had $102,000 in long-term restricted cash for a lease security deposit. Prepaid Research and Development and Other Prepaid Expenses Prepaid expenses consist of payments made in advance to vendors relating to service contracts for clinical trial development, manufacturing, preclinical development and insurance policies. These advanced payments are amortized to expense either as services are performed or over the relevant service period using the straight-line method. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first in, first out basis. Inventories consist of finished goods for the DefenCath/Neutrolin product. Property and Equipment Property and equipment consist primarily of furnishings, fixtures, leasehold improvements, manufacturing equipment, office and computer equipment and equipment in progress, all of which are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided for by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the remaining lease term or the life of the asset, whichever is shorter. Equipment in progress includes equipment which is not ready for its intended use. Net property and equipment, as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were $1,367,000 and $111,000, respectively. Leases The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities, and operating lease liabilities, net of current portion, on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has elected, as an accounting policy, not to apply the recognition requirements in ASC 842 to short-term leases. Short-term leases are leases that have a term of 12 months or less and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. The Company recognizes the lease payments for short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has also elected, as a practical expedient, by underlying class of asset, not to separate lease components from non-lease components and, instead, account for them as a single component. Accrued Expenses Accrued expenses consist of the following: September 30, December 31, Professional and consulting fees $ 565,296 $ 146,129 Accrued payroll and payroll taxes 2,090,032 2,490,441 Manufacturing development related 1,263,223 143,780 Other 67,112 144,001 Total $ 3,985,663 $ 2,924,351 Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The Company recognizes net sales upon shipment of product and upon meeting the five-step model prescribed by ASC 606 outlined above. Loss Per Common Share Basic loss per common share excludes any potential dilution and is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. However, since their effect is anti-dilutive, the Company has excluded potentially dilutive shares. The following potentially dilutive shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Research and development include fees associated with operational consultants, contract clinical research organizations, contract manufacturing organizations, clinical site fees, contract laboratory research organizations, contract central testing laboratories, licensing activities, and allocated executive, human resources, facilities expenses and costs related to the manufacturing of the product that could potentially be available to support the commercial launch prior to marketing approval. The Company accrues for costs incurred as the services are being provided by monitoring the status of the activities and the invoices received from its external service providers. Costs related to the acquisition of technology rights and patents for which development work is still in process are charged to operations as incurred and considered a component of research and development expense. |

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of 32,734 shares of its common stock upon exercise of stock options, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $137,000. No stock options were exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Preferred Stock The Company is authorized to issue up to 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series without stockholder approval. The Company’s board of directors has the discretion to determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences, of each series of preferred stock. Of the 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized, the Company’s board of directors has designated (all with par value of $0.001 per share) the following: As of September 30, 2021 As of December 31, 2020 Preferred Liquidation Total Preferred Liquidation Total Series C-3 2,000 $ 10.00 $ 20,000 52,000 $ 10.00 $ 520,000 Series E 89,623 $ 49.20 $ 4,409,452 89,623 $ 49.20 $ 4,409,452 Series G 89,999 $ 187.36 $ 16,862,213 100,000 $ 187.36 $ 18,736,452 Total 181,622 $ 21,291,665 241,623 $ 23,665,904 During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, 50,000 Series C-3 preferred shares were converted into 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock by an unrelated party and 10,001 Series G preferred shares were converted into 556,069 shares of the Company’s common stock by a related party. Stock Options During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company granted ten-year qualified and non-qualified stock options covering an aggregate of 1,389,700 shares of the Company’s common stock under the 2019 Stock Incentive Plan. The weighted average exercise price of these options is $8.48 per share. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, total compensation expense for stock options issued to employees, directors, officers and consultants was $1,048,000 and $3,789,000, respectively, and $611,000 and $1,973,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. As of September 30, 2021, there was approximately $7,536,000 in total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options granted, which expense will be recognized over an expected remaining weighted average period of 1.5 years. As of September 30, 2021, there were 3,754,944 stock options outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of $7.72 per share of which 1,892,188 stock options vested as of September 30, 2021 with a weighted average exercise price of $8.14 per share. The fair value of each stock option award estimated on the grant date is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, except for an aggregate of 410,000 stock option awards, of which vesting was upon achievement of certain milestones. The fair value of these options was determined using the Monte Carlo option pricing model. The following assumptions were used for the Black-Scholes option pricing model for the stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2021: Expected term 5 years Volatility 103.08% - 104.32 % Dividend yield 0.0 % Risk-free interest rate 0.50% - 0.84 % Weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the period $ 5.83 A summary of the assumptions used in the Monte Carlo option pricing model are as follows: Expected term 2 years Volatility 107.10 % Dividend yield 0.0 % Risk-free interest rate 1.15 % The Company estimated the expected term of the stock options granted based on anticipated exercises in future periods as calculated by the Company’s historical option exercise activities. The expected term of the stock options granted to consultants is based upon the full term of the respective option agreements. The expected stock price volatility for the Company’s stock options is calculated based on the historical volatility since the initial public offering of the Company’s common stock in March 2010. The expected dividend yield of 0.0% reflects the Company’s current and expected future policy for dividends on the Company’s common stock. To determine the risk-free interest rate, the Company utilized the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant with a term consistent with the expected term of the Company’s awards which is 5 years for employees and 10 years for non-employees. Restricted Stock Units During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company did not grant any restricted stock units (“RSUs”), no compensation expense was recognized and there are no outstanding RSUs at September 30, 2021. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,490 shares of its common stock upon the vesting of RSUs issued to the Company’s board of directors.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Note 4 — Commitments and Contingencies: Contingency Matters On or around July 22, 2021, a purported stockholder of the Company filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, naming as defendants the Company, Khoso Baluch, Matthew David and Phoebe Mounts. The complaint alleges violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, based on alleged misstatements and omissions in connection with the NDA submitted to the FDA for DefenCath, and the subsequent notification by the FDA that the NDA could not be approved in its present form. The complaint purports to assert claims on behalf of persons that purchased or otherwise acquired shares of the Company securities between July 8, 2020 and May 13, 2021. On or around September 13, 2021, another purported stockholder of the Company filed a substantially similar complaint in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, naming as defendants the Company, Khoso Baluch, Matthew David and Phoebe Mounts and purporting to assert claims on behalf of persons that purchased or otherwise acquired shares of the Company securities between October 16, 2020 and May 13, 2021. On October 13, 2021, the Court consolidated the actions into In re CorMedix Inc. Securities Litigation On or about October 13, 2021, a purported shareholder, derivatively and on behalf of the Company, filed a shareholder derivative complaint in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, against Khoso Baluch, Janet Dillione, Alan W. Dunton, Myron Kaplan, Steven Lefkowitz, Paulo F. Costa, Greg Duncan, Matthew David, and Phoebe Mounts along with the Company as Nominal Defendant. The complaint alleges breaches of fiduciary duties, abuse of control, and waste of corporate assets against the defendants and a claim for contribution for purported violations of Sections 10(b) and 21D of the Exchange Act against certain defendants. The case is at an early stage. On September 9, 2014, the Company filed in the District Court of Mannheim, Germany, a patent infringement action against TauroPharm GmbH and Tauro-Implant GmbH as well as their respective CEOs (the “Defendants”) claiming infringement of the Company’s European Patent EP 1 814 562 B1, which was granted by the European Patent Office (the “EPO”) on January 8, 2014 (the “Prosl European Patent”). The Prosl European Patent covers the formulation of taurolidine and citrate with low dose heparin in a catheter lock solution for maintaining patency and preventing infection in hemodialysis catheters. In this action, the Company claims that the Defendants infringe on the Prosl European Patent by manufacturing and distributing catheter locking solutions to the extent they are covered by the claims of the Prosl European Patent. The Company believes that its patent is sound and is seeking injunctive relief and raising claims for information, rendering of accounts, calling back, destruction and damages. Separately, TauroPharm has filed an opposition with the EPO against the Prosl European Patent alleging that it lacks novelty and inventive step. The Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of either of these related matters. At present, the EPO has revoked the Prosl European Patent as invalid, and the Company has filed an appeal, which is currently pending. In the same complaint against the same Defendants, the Company also alleged an infringement (requesting the same remedies) of ND Partners’ utility model DE 20 2005 022 124 U1 (the “Utility Model”), which the Company believes is fundamentally identical to the Prosl European Patent in its main aspects and claims. The Court separated the two proceedings and the Prosl European Patent and the Utility Model claims were tried separately. TauroPharm has filed a cancellation action against the Utility Model before the German Patent and Trademark Office (the “German PTO”) based on the similar arguments as those in the opposition against the Prosl European Patent. The Court issued its decisions on May 8, 2015, staying both proceedings. In its decisions, the Court found that the commercialization by TauroPharm in Germany of its TauroLock catheter lock solutions Hep100 and Hep500 infringes both the Prosl European Patent and the Utility Model and further that there is no prior use right that would allow TauroPharm to continue to make, use or sell its product in Germany. However, the Court declined to issue an injunction in favor of the Company that would preclude the continued commercialization by TauroPharm based upon its finding that there is a sufficient likelihood that the EPO, in the case of the Prosl European Patent, or the German PTO, in the case of the Utility Model, may find that such patent or utility model is invalid. Specifically, the Court noted the possible publication of certain instructions for product use that may be deemed to constitute prior art. As such, the District Court determined that it will defer any consideration of the request by the Company for injunctive and other relief until such time as the EPO or the German PTO made a final decision on the underlying validity of the Prosl European Patent and the Utility Model. The opposition proceeding against the Prosl European Patent before the EPO is ongoing. The EPO held a hearing in the opposition proceeding on November 25, 2015. However, the EPO did not issue a decision at the end of the hearing but adjourned the matter due to the fact that the panel was of the view that Claus Herdeis, one of the managing directors of TauroPharm, had to be heard as a witness in a further hearing in order to close some gaps in the documentation presented by TauroPharm as regards the publication of the prior art. The German PTO held a hearing in the validity proceedings relating to the Utility Model on June 29, 2016, at which the panel affirmed its preliminary finding that the Utility Model was invalid based upon prior publication of a reference to the benefits that may be associated with adding heparin to a taurolidine based solution. The Company filed an appeal against the ruling on September 7, 2016. An oral hearing was held on September 17, 2019 in which the German Federal Patent Court affirmed the first instance decision that the Utility Model was invalid. The decision has only a declaratory effect, as the Utility Model had expired in November 2015. On April 28, 2020, the Company filed a withdrawal of the complaint on the German utility model, thereby waiving its claims on these proceedings. During the year ended December 31, 2020, costs in connection with the utility model infringement proceedings of approximately $30,000 were reimbursed to TauroPharm . On November 22, 2017, the EPO in Munich, Germany held a further oral hearing in this matter. At the hearing, the panel held that the Prosl European Patent would be invalidated because it did not meet the requirements of novelty based on a technical aspect of the European intellectual property law. The Company disagrees with this decision and has appealed the decision. The Company continues to believe that the Prosl European Patent is indeed novel and that its validity should be maintained. There can be no assurance that the Company will prevail in this matter. On January 16, 2015, the Company filed a complaint against TauroPharm GmbH and its managing directors in the District Court of Cologne, Germany. In the complaint, the Company alleged violation of the German Unfair Competition Act by TauroPharm and that TauroPharm is improperly and unfairly using its proprietary information relating to the composition and manufacture of Neutrolin, in the manufacture and sale of TauroPharm’s products TauroLock TM In connection with the aforementioned patent and utility model infringement and unfair competition proceedings against TauroPharm, the Company was required by the District Courts of Mannheim and Cologne to provide security deposits to cover legal fees in the event TauroPharm is entitled to reimbursement of these costs. As of September 30, 2021, the aggregate deposit was approximately $134,000, which the Company recorded as restricted cash on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, after deducting approximately $48,000 released by the court to the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Commitments In-Licensing In 2008, the Company entered into a License and Assignment Agreement (the “NDP License Agreement”) with ND Partners, LLP (“NDP”). Pursuant to the NDP License Agreement, NDP granted the Company exclusive, worldwide licenses for certain antimicrobial catheter lock solutions, processes for treating and inhibiting infections, a biocidal lock system and a taurolidine delivery apparatus, and the corresponding United States and foreign patents and applications (the “NDP Technology”). The Company acquired such licenses and patents through its assignment and assumption of NDP’s rights under certain separate license agreements by and between NDP and Dr. Hans-Dietrich Polaschegg, Dr. Klaus Sodemann and Dr. Johannes Reinmueller. As consideration in part for the rights to the NDP Technology, the Company paid NDP an initial licensing fee of $325,000 and granted NDP a 5% equity interest in the Company, consisting of 7,996 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company is required to make payments to NDP upon the achievement of certain regulatory and sales-based milestones. Certain of the milestone payments are to be made in the form of shares of common stock currently held in escrow for NDP, and other milestone payments are to be paid in cash. The maximum aggregate number of shares issuable upon achievement of milestones is 29,109 shares. In 2014, a certain milestone was achieved resulting in the release of 7,277 shares held in escrow. The number of shares held in escrow as of September 30, 2021 is 21,832 shares of common stock. The maximum aggregate amount of cash payments due upon achievement of milestones is $3,000,000 with the balance being $2,500,000 as of September 30, 2021 and 2020. Events that trigger milestone payments include but are not limited to the reaching of various stages of regulatory approval and upon achieving certain worldwide net sales amounts. There were no milestones achieved during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. The NDP License Agreement may be terminated by the Company on a country-by-country basis upon 60 days prior written notice. If the NDP License Agreement is terminated by either party, the Company’s rights to the NDP Technology will revert back to NDP. |

Liquidity and Uncertainties | Liquidity and Uncertainties The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. To date, the Company’s commercial operations have not generated sufficient revenues to enable profitability. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $237.9 million, and incurred net losses from operations of $8.6 million and $6.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively and $20.4 million and $15.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company currently estimates that as of September 30, 2021 it has sufficient cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments on hand to fund its operations at least through 2022, after taking into consideration the costs for re-submission of the NDA and initial preparations for the commercial launch for DefenCath. In June 2021, the Company received approximately $1.3 million, net of expenses, from the sale of its unused New Jersey net operating losses (“NOL”) eligible for sale under the State of New Jersey’s Economic Development Authority’s New Jersey Technology Business Tax Certificate Transfer program (“NJEDA Program”). The NJEDA Program allowed the Company to sell approximately $1.3 million of its total $1.3 million in available NOL tax benefits for the state fiscal year 2020. The Company’s continued operations will depend on its ability to raise additional capital through various potential sources, such as equity and/or debt financings, strategic relationships, potential strategic transactions or out-licensing of its products in order to commercially launch DefenCath upon NDA approval and until profitability is achieved, if ever. Management can provide no assurances that such financing or strategic relationships will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. As of September 30, 2021, the Company has $150.0 million available under its new shelf registration filed on August 12, 2021 for the issuance of equity, debt or equity-linked securities and $50.0 million available under the ATM program relating to its shelf registration statement filed in November 2020 (See Note 3). The Company’s operations are subject to a number of other factors that can affect its operating results and financial condition. Such factors include, but are not limited to: the ability to obtain regulatory approval to market the Company’s products; ability to manufacture successfully; competition from products manufactured and sold or being developed by other companies; the price of, and demand for the Company products; the Company’s ability to negotiate favorable licensing or other manufacturing and marketing agreements for its products; the results of clinical testing and trial activities of the Company’s product candidates; and the Company’s ability to raise capital to support its operations. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Basis of Consolidation | Basis of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, CorMedix Europe GmbH and CorMedix Spain, S.L.U., its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Financial Instruments | Financial Instruments Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit and other interest-bearing accounts, the balances of which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The following table is the reconciliation of the accounting standard that modifies certain aspects of the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments as shown on the Company’s consolidated statement of cash flows: September 30, December 31, Cash and cash equivalents $ 66,316,229 $ 41,905,469 Restricted cash, short-term and long-term 236,732 191,314 Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 66,552,961 $ 42,096,783 The appropriate classification of marketable securities is determined at the time of purchase and reevaluated as of each balance sheet date. Investments in marketable debt classified as available-for-sale and equity securities are reported at fair value. Fair value is determined using quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities or quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Changes in fair value that are considered temporary are reported in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Realized gains and losses, amortization of premiums and discounts and interest and dividends earned are included in other income (expense). For declines in the fair value of equity securities that are considered other-than-temporary, impairment losses are charged to other income (expense), net. The Company considers available evidence in evaluating potential impairments of its investments, including the duration and extent to which fair value is less than cost. There were no deemed permanent impairments at September 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020. The Company’s marketable securities are highly liquid and consist of U.S. government agency securities, high-grade corporate obligations and commercial paper with original maturities of more than 90 days. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, all of the Company’s investments had contractual maturities of less than one year. As of September 30, 2021, no allowance for credit loss was recorded. The following table summarizes the amortized cost, unrealized gains and losses and the fair value at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020: September 30, 2021: Amortized Gross Gross Fair Value Money Market Funds included in Cash Equivalents $ 16,977,646 $ - $ - $ 16,977,646 Corporate Securities 4,754,847 (1,274 ) 25 4,753,598 Commercial Paper 899,370 - 234 899,604 Subtotal 5,654,217 (1,274 ) 259 5,653,202 Total September 30, 2021 $ 22,631,863 $ (1,274 ) $ 259 $ 22,630,848 December 31, 2020: Money Market Funds included in Cash Equivalents $ 3,182,762 $ (81 ) $ 8 $ 3,182,689 Corporate Securities 3,565,501 (1,005 ) 3 3,564,499 Commercial Paper 879,501 - 72 879,573 Subtotal 4,445,002 (1,005 ) 75 4,444,072 Total December 31, 2020 $ 7,627,764 $ (1,086 ) $ 83 $ 7,626,761 |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The Company’s financial instruments recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investment securities, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying value of certain financial instruments, primarily cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their estimated fair values based upon the short-term nature of their maturity dates. The Company categorizes its financial instruments into a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the category level is based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument. Financial assets recorded at fair value on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets are categorized as follows: ● Level 1 inputs—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. ● Level 2 inputs— Significant other observable inputs (e.g., quoted prices for similar items in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar items in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable such as interest rate and yield curves, and market-corroborated inputs). ● Level 3 inputs—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are supported by little or no market activity and are valued based on management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The following table provides the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020: September 30, 2021: Carrying Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Money Market Funds and Cash Equivalents $ 16,977,646 $ 16,977,646 $ - $ - Corporate Securities 4,753,598 - 4,753,598 - Commercial Paper 899,604 - 899,604 - Subtotal 5,653,202 - 5,653,202 $ - Total September 30, 2021 $ 22,630,848 $ 16,977,646 $ 5,653,202 $ - December 31, 2020: Money Market Funds and Cash Equivalents $ 3,182,689 $ 3,182,689 $ - $ - Corporate Securities 3,564,499 - 3,564,499 - Commercial Paper 879,573 - 879,573 - Subtotal 4,444,072 - 4,444,072 - Total December 31, 2020 $ 7,626,761 $ 3,182,689 $ 4,444,072 $ - |
Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions | Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars (“USD”), the reporting currency of the Company. For the financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries, whose functional currency is the EURO, foreign currency asset and liability amounts, are translated into USD at end-of-period exchange rates. Foreign currency income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the period in which the income and expenses were recognized. Translation gains and losses are included in other comprehensive income (loss). The Company has intercompany loans between the parent company based in New Jersey and its German subsidiary. The intercompany loans outstanding are not expected to be repaid in the foreseeable future and unrealized foreign exchange movements related to long-term intercompany loans are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). Foreign currency exchange transaction gain (loss) is the result of re-measuring transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity recording the transaction. |
Restricted Cash | Restricted Cash As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has restricted cash in connection with the patent and utility model infringement proceedings against TauroPharm (see Note 4). The Company was required by the District Courts of Mannheim to provide security deposit to cover legal fees in the event TauroPharm is entitled to reimbursement of these costs. The Company furthermore had to provide a deposit for the first and second instances, respectively, in connection with the unfair competition proceedings in Cologne. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, approximately $48,000 was released by the court for the reimbursement of legal fees and other costs which was removed from restricted cash. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, restricted cash in connection with the patent and utility model infringement proceedings were $134,000 and $191,000, respectively. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had $102,000 in long-term restricted cash for a lease security deposit. |
Prepaid Research and Development and Other Prepaid Expenses | Prepaid Research and Development and Other Prepaid Expenses Prepaid expenses consist of payments made in advance to vendors relating to service contracts for clinical trial development, manufacturing, preclinical development and insurance policies. These advanced payments are amortized to expense either as services are performed or over the relevant service period using the straight-line method. |
Inventories | Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first in, first out basis. Inventories consist of finished goods for the DefenCath/Neutrolin product. |
Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Property and Equipment Property and equipment consist primarily of furnishings, fixtures, leasehold improvements, manufacturing equipment, office and computer equipment and equipment in progress, all of which are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided for by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the remaining lease term or the life of the asset, whichever is shorter. Equipment in progress includes equipment which is not ready for its intended use. Net property and equipment, as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were $1,367,000 and $111,000, respectively. |
Leases | Leases The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities, and operating lease liabilities, net of current portion, on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has elected, as an accounting policy, not to apply the recognition requirements in ASC 842 to short-term leases. Short-term leases are leases that have a term of 12 months or less and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. The Company recognizes the lease payments for short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has also elected, as a practical expedient, by underlying class of asset, not to separate lease components from non-lease components and, instead, account for them as a single component. |
Accrued Expenses | Accrued Expenses Accrued expenses consist of the following: September 30, December 31, Professional and consulting fees $ 565,296 $ 146,129 Accrued payroll and payroll taxes 2,090,032 2,490,441 Manufacturing development related 1,263,223 143,780 Other 67,112 144,001 Total $ 3,985,663 $ 2,924,351 |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The Company recognizes net sales upon shipment of product and upon meeting the five-step model prescribed by ASC 606 outlined above. |
Loss Per Common Share | Loss Per Common Share Basic loss per common share excludes any potential dilution and is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. However, since their effect is anti-dilutive, the Company has excluded potentially dilutive shares. The following potentially dilutive shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation Share-based compensation cost for stock options granted to employees is measured at grant date using the Black-Scholes stock option pricing model in accordance with ASC No. 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” |
Research and Development | Research and Development Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. Research and development include fees associated with operational consultants, contract clinical research organizations, contract manufacturing organizations, clinical site fees, contract laboratory research organizations, contract central testing laboratories, licensing activities, and allocated executive, human resources, facilities expenses and costs related to the manufacturing of the product that could potentially be available to support the commercial launch prior to marketing approval. The Company accrues for costs incurred as the services are being provided by monitoring the status of the activities and the invoices received from its external service providers. Costs related to the acquisition of technology rights and patents for which development work is still in process are charged to operations as incurred and considered a component of research and development expense. |

Organization and business, description | The Company has in-licensed the worldwide rights to develop and commercialize DefenCath/ Neutrolin®, which is a novel anti-infective solution (a formulation of taurolidine 13.5 mg/ml and heparin 1000 USP Units/ml) intended for the reduction and prevention of catheter-related infections and thrombosis in patients requiring central venous catheters (“CVCs”) in clinical settings such as hemodialysis, total parenteral nutrition and oncology. Infection and thrombosis represent key complications among hemodialysis, total parenteral nutrition and cancer patients with CVCs. These complications can lead to treatment delays and increased costs to the healthcare system when they occur due to hospitalizations, need for intravenous (“IV”) antibiotic treatment, long-term anticoagulation therapy, removal/replacement of the CVC, related treatment costs and increased mortality. The name DefenCath is the U.S. proprietary name conditionally approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), while the name Neutrolin is currently used in the European Union (“EU”) and other territories where the Company has received CE-Mark approval for the commercial distribution of Neutrolin as a catheter lock solution (“CLS”) regulated as a medical device. |
Defencath relative to the active control, description | As previously agreed with the FDA, an interim efficacy analysis was performed when the first 28 potential CRBSI cases were identified in our LOCK-IT-100 study that occurred through early December 2017. Based on these first 28 cases, there was a highly statistically significant 72% reduction in CRBSI by DefenCath relative to the active control of heparin (p=0.0034). Because the pre-specified level of statistical significance was reached for the primary endpoint and efficacy had been demonstrated with no safety concerns, the LOCK-IT-100 study was terminated early. The study continued enrolling and treating subjects until study termination, and the final analysis was based on a total of 795 subjects. In a total of 41 cases, there was a 71% reduction in CRBSI by DefenCath relative to heparin, which was highly statistically significant (p=0.0006), with a good safety profile. |
Pediatric research equity act, description | Pediatric studies for an approved product conducted under PREA may qualify for pediatric exclusivity, which if granted would provide an additional six months of marketing exclusivity. DefenCath would then have the potential to receive a total marketing exclusivity period of 10.5 years, including exclusivity pursuant to NCE and QIDP. |

Riley FBR Inc. and Needham & Company, LLC as sales agents. The Amended Sales Agreement relates to the sale of shares of up to $25.0 million of the Company’s common stock under its ATM program, of which the Company may issue and sell common stock from time to time through the sales agents, subject to limitations imposed by the Company and subject to the sales agents’ acceptance, such as the number or dollar amount of shares registered under the registration statement to which the offering relates. The sales agents are entitled to a commission of up to 3% of the gross proceeds from the sale of common stock sold under the ATM program. At December 31, 2020, the Company had approximately $17.8 million available under the Amended Sales Agreement and $75.0 million available under its current shelf registration statement for the issuance of equity, debt or equity-linked securities unrelated to the Amended Sales Agreement.
