Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Description of Business | DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Sesen Bio, Inc. ("Sesen" or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation formed in February 2008, is a late-stage clinical company advancing targeted fusion protein therapeutics ("TFPTs") for the treatment of patients with cancer. The Company’s most advanced product candidate, Vicineum TM , also known as VB4-845, is a locally-administered targeted fusion protein composed of an anti-epithelial cell adhesion molecule ("EpCAM") antibody fragment tethered to a truncated form of Pseudomonas exotoxin A for the treatment of bacillus Calmette-Guérin ("BCG")-unresponsive non-muscle invasive bladder cancer ("NMIBC"). The Company has an ongoing single-arm, multi-center, open-label Phase 3 clinical trial of Vicineum as a monotherapy in patients with BCG-unresponsive NMIBC (the "VISTA Trial"). The VISTA Trial completed enrollment in April 2018 with a total of 133 patients. On December 18, 2020, the Company submitted its completed Biologics License Application (the "BLA") for Vicineum for the treatment of BCG-unresponsive NMIBC to the United States Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). On February 12, 2021, the FDA notified the Company that it has accepted for filing the BLA. The FDA also granted Priority Review for the BLA and the target Prescription Drug User Fee Act ("PDUFA") date for a decision on the BLA is August 18, 2021. In addition to the file acceptance and granting of Priority Review, the FDA also indicated that it is not currently planning to hold an advisory committee meeting to discuss the BLA for Vicineum. On July 13, 2021, the Company participated in a productive Late-Cycle Meeting with the FDA regarding the BLA for Vicineum for the treatment of BCG-unresponsive NMIBC. In the meeting, the FDA confirmed that there is no Advisory Committee meeting planned at this time, and that no post-marketing requirements, including a confirmatory trial, have been identified at this time. Also in the meeting, the Company and the FDA discussed remaining questions related to manufacturing facilities inspection, product quality information requests and additional information related to chemistry, manufacturing and controls (“CMC”), and a timeline to submit additional supporting information was agreed upon. In the US, the Company believes it remains on track for an FDA decision on its BLA for Vicineum by the target PDUFA date of August 18, 2021. The Company operates in one segment under the direction of its Chief Executive Officer (chief operating decision maker). The Company was formerly known as Eleven Biotherapeutics, Inc. until its name changed in May 2018. Viventia Acquisition In September 2016, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Viventia Bio, Inc., a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada ("Viventia"), the shareholders of Viventia named therein (the “Selling Shareholders”) and, solely in its capacity as seller representative, Clairmark Investments Ltd., a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada (“Clairmark”) (the “Share Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to and simultaneously completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of Viventia from the Selling Shareholders (the “Viventia Acquisition”). In connection with the closing of the Viventia Acquisition, the Company issued 4.0 million shares of its common stock to the Selling Shareholders, which at that time represented approximately 19.9% of the voting power of the Company as of immediately prior to the issuance of such shares. Clairmark is an affiliate of Leslie L. Dan, who served as a director of the Company until his retirement in July 2019. In addition, under the Share Purchase Agreement, the Company is obligated to pay to the Selling Shareholders certain post-closing contingent cash payments upon the achievement of specified milestones and based upon net sales, in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Share Purchase Agreement, including: (i) a one-time milestone payment of $12.5 million payable upon the first sale of Vicineum (the “Purchased Product”) in the United States; (ii) a one-time milestone payment of $7 million payable upon the first sale of the Purchased Product in any one of certain specified European countries; (iii) a one-time milestone payment of $3 million payable upon the first sale of the Purchased Product in Japan; and (iv) quarterly earn-out payments equal to 2% of net sales of the Purchased Product during specified earn-out periods. Such earn-out payments are payable with respect to net sales in a country beginning on the date of the first sale in such country and ending on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2033 and (ii) fifteen years after the date of such sale, subject to early termination in certain circumstances if a biosimilar product is on the market in the applicable country (collectively, the "Contingent Consideration"). Under the Share Purchase Agreement, the Company, its affiliates, licensees and subcontractors are required to use commercially reasonable efforts for the first seven years following the closing of the Viventia Acquisition, to achieve marketing authorizations throughout the world and, during the applicable earn-out period, to commercialize the Purchased Product in the United States, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom, Japan, China and Canada. Certain of these payments are payable to individuals or affiliates of individuals that became employees or members of the Company's board of directors, however as of June 30, 2021, none of these individuals are employees or members of the Company's board of directors. Liquidity and Going Concern As of June 30, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $151.0 million, net working capital of $156.3 million and an accumulated deficit of $396.9 million. The Company incurred negative cash flows from operating activities of $30.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 and $41.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Since its inception, the Company has received no revenue from sales of its products, and management anticipates that operating losses will continue as the Company completes the follow-up stage of its ongoing Phase 3 VISTA Trial for Vicineum for the treatment of BCG-unresponsive NMIBC and seeks marketing approval from the FDA and the European Medicines Agency ("EMA"), and if approved, commercializes Vicineum. The Company has financed its operations to date primarily through private placements of its common stock, preferred stock, common stock warrants and convertible bridge notes, venture debt borrowings, its initial public offering ("IPO"), follow-on public offerings, sales effected in "at-the-market" ("ATM") offerings, out-licensing agreements and outside of United States ("OUS") business development partnership agreements, and, to a lesser extent, from a collaboration. See “Note 9. Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit)” below for information regarding the Company’s recently completed equity financings. Under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern , management is required at each reporting period to evaluate whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. This evaluation initially does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of management's plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the financial statements are issued. When substantial doubt exists, management evaluates whether the mitigating effect of its plans sufficiently alleviates the substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of management's plans, however, is only considered if both (i) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued and (ii) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Generally, to be considered probable of being effectively implemented, the plans must have been approved by the Company's board of directors before the date that the financial statements are issued. The Company's future success is dependent on its ability to develop and commercialize Vicineum for the treatment of BCG-unresponsive NMIBC, and ultimately upon its ability to attain profitable operations. In order to commercialize its product candidates, including Vicineum for the treatment of BCG-unresponsive NMIBC, the Company needs to complete clinical development and comply with comprehensive regulatory requirements. The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to other late-stage clinical companies, including, but not limited to, successful discovery and development of its product candidates, raising additional capital, development and commercialization by its competitors of new technological innovations, protection of proprietary technology, market acceptance of its products and dependence on third parties for the development and commercialization of Vicineum in certain markets. The successful discovery and development of product candidates, including Vicineum for the treatment of BCG-unresponsive NMIBC, requires substantial working capital, and management expects to seek additional funds through equity or debt financings or through additional business development partnerships, collaborations or licensing transactions or other sources. The Company may be unable to obtain equity or debt financings or enter into additional business development partnerships, collaborations or licensing transactions on favorable terms, or at all. To the extent that the Company raises additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interests of existing stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of existing stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include liens or other restrictive covenants limiting the Company's ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If the Company raises additional funds through government or other third-party funding, strategic collaborations, business development partnerships, alliances or licensing arrangements, it may have to relinquish valuable rights to its technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds when needed, it may be required to implement cost reduction strategies and delay, limit, reduce or terminate its product development, regulatory approval or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market products or product candidates that management would otherwise prefer to develop and market. Management does not believe that the Company's cash and cash equivalents of $151.0 million as of June 30, 2021 are sufficient to fund the Company's current operating plan for at least twelve months after the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. Given the history of significant losses, negative cash flows from operations, limited cash resources currently on hand, and dependence by the Company on its ability - about which there can be no certainty - to obtain additional financing to fund its operations after the current cash resources are exhausted, substantial doubt exists about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. |

All adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows have been made. Although these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete annual financial statements, management believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These unaudited interim results of operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 15, 2021, wherein a more complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain other information can be found. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP and the rules and regulations of the SEC requires the use of estimates and assumptions, based on judgments considered reasonable, which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Although management believes its estimates and assumptions are reasonable when made, they are based upon information available at the time they are made. Management evaluates the estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and, if necessary, makes adjustments. Due to the risks and uncertainties involved in the Company’s business and evolving market conditions, and given the subjective element of the estimates and assumptions made, actual results may differ from estimated results. The most significant estimates and judgments impact the fair value of intangible assets, goodwill and contingent consideration; income taxes (including the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets); research and development expenses; revenue recognition and going concern considerations. Principles of Consolidation The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiary Viventia and its indirect subsidiaries, Viventia Bio USA Inc. and Viventia Biotech (EU) Limited. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Foreign Currency Translation The functional currency of the Company and each of its subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, prepaid expenses and other current assets, and accounts payable on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets approximated their fair values as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 due to their short-term nature. Certain of the Company’s financial instruments are measured at fair value using a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This fair value hierarchy prioritizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows: Level 1 : Inputs are quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 : Inputs are quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; or model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable. Level 3 : Inputs are unobservable and reflect the Company’s own assumptions, based on the best information available, including the Company’s own data. The following tables set forth the carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (in thousands): June 30, 2021 Fair Value Measurement Based on Carrying Amount Fair Value Quoted Prices in Active Significant Other Observable Significant Unobservable Assets: Money market funds $ 16,379 $ 16,379 $ 16,379 $ — $ — Liabilities: Contingent consideration - short term $ 10,300 $ 10,300 $ — $ — $ 10,300 Contingent consideration - long term $ 160,300 $ 160,300 $ — $ — $ 160,300 December 31, 2020 Fair Value Measurement Based on Carrying Amount Fair Value Quoted Prices in Active Significant Other Observable Significant Unobservable Assets: Money market funds $ 16,374 $ 16,374 $ 16,374 $ — $ — Liabilities: Contingent consideration - short term $ 8,985 $ 8,985 $ — $ — $ 8,985 Contingent consideration - long term $ 99,855 $ 99,855 $ — $ — $ 99,855 The Company evaluates transfers between fair value levels at the end of each reporting period. There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between fair value levels during the six months ended June 30, 2021. Contingent Consideration On September 20, 2016, the Company acquired Viventia through the issuance of shares of common stock plus contingent consideration, pursuant to the terms of a Share Purchase Agreement. The Company recorded the acquired assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date and finalized its purchase accounting for the Viventia Acquisition during the third quarter of 2017. The contingent consideration relates to amounts potentially payable to the former shareholders of Viventia under the Share Purchase Agreement. Contingent consideration is measured at its estimated fair value at each reporting period, with fluctuations in value resulting in a non-cash charge to earnings (or loss) during the period. The estimated fair value measurement is based on significant inputs, including internally developed financial forecasts, probabilities of success, and the timing of certain milestone events and achievements, which are not observable in the market, representing a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The valuation of contingent consideration requires the use of significant assumptions and judgments, which management believes are consistent with those that would be made by a market participant. Management reviews its assumptions and judgments on an ongoing basis as additional market and other data is obtained, and any future changes in the assumptions and judgments utilized by management may cause the estimated fair value of contingent consideration to fluctuate materially, resulting in earnings volatility. The estimated fair value of the Company’s contingent consideration was determined using probabilities of successful achievement of regulatory milestones and commercial sales, the period in which these milestones and sales are expected to be achieved ranging from 2021 to 2033, the level of commercial sales of Vicineum forecasted for the United States, Europe, Japan, China and other potential markets and discount rates ranging from 6.6% to 6.8% as of June 30, 2021 and 8.4% to 8.8% as of December 31, 2020. There have been no changes to the valuation methods utilized during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The following table sets forth a summary of the change in the fair value of the Company's total contingent consideration liability, measured on a recurring basis at each reporting period, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 (in thousands): Balance at December 31, 2020 $108,840 Change in fair value of contingent consideration - short term 1,315 Change in fair value of contingent consideration - long term 60,445 Balance at June 30, 2021 $ 170,600 The fair value of the Company’s contingent consideration is determined based on the present value of projected future cash flows associated with sales based milestones and earnouts on net sales and is heavily dependent on discount rates to estimate the fair value at each reporting period. Earnouts are determined using an earnout rate of 2% on all commercial net sales of Vicineum through December 2033. The discount rate applied to the 2% earnout is derived from the Company’s estimated weighted-average cost of capital (“WACC”), which has fluctuated from 8.8% as of December 31, 2020 to 6.8% as of June 30, 2021. Milestone payments constitute debt-like obligations, and therefore a high-yield debt index rate is applied to the milestones in order to determine the estimated fair value. This index rate changed from 8.4% as of December 31, 2020 to 6.6% as of June 30, 2021. Improvements to the competitive landscape, higher probability of regulatory success, expanded patient population, as well as the refinement of estimated launch timelines for Vicineum, if approved, in certain markets and the aforementioned changes in discounts rates, resulted in an overal l $61.8 million increase in the estimated fair value of contingent consideration during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The current portion of total contingent consideration reflects amounts expected to be paid out within twelve months of June 30, 2021. |

STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (DEFICIT) | STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (DEFICIT) Equity Financings ATM Offering In November 2019, the Company entered into an Open Market Sale Agreement SM (the "Sale Agreement") with Jefferies LLC ("Jefferies"), under which the Company may issue and sell shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, from time to time for an aggregate sales price of up to $35 million through Jefferies (the "ATM Offering"). In October 2020 and February 2021, the Company entered into Amendments No. 1 and No. 2 to the Sale Agreement, respectively. Amendments No. 1 and No. 2 modified the Sale Agreement to reflect that the Company may issue and sell shares of its common stock from time to time for an aggregate sales price of up to an additional $50 million and $34.5 million, respectively. In June 2021, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Sale Agreement, which modified the Sale Agreement to remove the maximum dollar amount of shares of common stock that may be sold pursuant to the Sale Agreement and filed a prospectus supplement with the SEC in connection with the offer and sale of up to $100 million of common stock pursuant to the Sale Agreement. Sales are made by any method that is deemed to be an ATM offering as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including but not limited to sales made directly on or through the Nasdaq Global Market or any other existing trading market for our common stock. The Company may sell shares of its common stock efficiently from time to time over the coming months, but has no obligation to sell any of its common stock and may at any time suspend offers under the Sale Agreement or terminate the Sale Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Sale Agreement, Jefferies will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell common stock from time to time, as the sales agent, based upon the Company’s instructions, which include a prohibition on sales below a minimum price set by the Company from time to time. The Company has provided Jefferies with customary indemnification rights, and Jefferies is entitled to a commission at a fixed rate equal to 3.0% of the gross proceeds for each sale of common stock under the Sale Agreement. The Company raised $136.8 million of net proceeds from the sale of 47.1 million shares of common stock at a weighted-average price of $2.99 per share during the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $8.0 million of net proceeds from the sale of 9.8 million shares of common stock at a weighted-average price of $0.75 per share during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company raised $64.3 million of net proceeds from the sale of 16.5 million shares of common stock at a weighted-average price of $4.02 per share during the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $4.8 million of net proceeds from the sale of 6.6 million shares of common stock at a weighted-average price of $0.69 per share during the three months ended June 30, 2020. Share issue costs, including sales agent commissions, related to the ATM Offering totaled $2.0 million and $4.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. Preferred Stock Pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the "Certificate of Incorporation"), the Company is authorized to issue 5.0 million shares of "blank check" preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share, which enables its board of directors, from time to time, to create one or more series of preferred stock. Each series of preferred stock issued shall have the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions as designated by the board of directors. The issuance of any series of preferred stock could affect, among other things, the dividend, voting and liquidation rights of the Company's common stock. The Company had no preferred stock issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Common Stock Pursuant to its Certificate of Incorporation, the Company is authorized to issue 400 million and 200 million shares of common stock, of which 188 million and 140 million shares were issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

(LOSS) EARNINGS PER SHARE
(LOSS) EARNINGS PER SHARE | 6 Months Ended |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
(LOSS) EARNINGS PER SHARE | (LOSS) EARNINGS PER SHARE A net loss cannot be diluted. Therefore, when the Company is in a net loss position, basic and diluted loss per common share are the same. If the Company achieves profitability, the denominator of a diluted earnings per common share calculation includes both the weighted-average number of shares outstanding and the number of common stock equivalents, if the inclusion of such common stock equivalents would be dilutive. Dilutive common stock equivalents potentially include warrants, stock options and non-vested restricted stock awards and units using the treasury stock method, along with the effect, if any, from outstanding convertible securities. The majority of the Company’s outstanding warrants to purchase common stock have participation rights to any dividends that may be declared in the future and are therefore considered to be participating securities. Participating securities have the effect of diluting both basic and diluted earnings per share during periods of income. During periods of loss, no loss is allocated to the participating securities since the holders have no contractual obligation to share in the losses of the Company. Additionally, an entity that presents earnings per share shall recognize the value of the effect of an anti-dilution provision in an equity-classified freestanding financial instrument in the period the anti-dilution provision is triggered. That effect shall be treated as a deemed dividend and as a reduction of income available to common stockholders in basic earnings per share. The deemed dividend is added back to income available to common stockholders when applying the treasury stock method for diluted earnings per share. For periods with net income, diluted net earnings per share is calculated by either (i) adjusting the weighted-average shares outstanding for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents outstanding for the period as determined using the treasury stock method or (ii) the two-class method considering common stock equivalents, whichever is more dilutive. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that treats a participating security as having rights to earnings that otherwise would have been available to common stockholders. The two-class method was applied for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The two-class method was not applied for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and was not applied for the three months ended June 30, 2020 as the Company’s participating securities do not have any obligation to absorb net losses. The following table illustrates the determination of (loss) earnings per share for each period presented: Three Months ended June 30, Six Months ended June 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 (in thousands, except per share amounts) Basic (Loss) Earnings Per Share: Numerator: Net (loss) income $ (25,442) $ (26,344) $ (80,954) $ 15,220 Less: Deemed Dividend — $ (147) — $ (147) Less: Income attributable to participating securities - basic $ — $ — $ — $ (322) Net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders - basic $ (25,442) $ (26,491) $ (80,954) $ 14,751 Denominator: Weighted average common shares outstanding - basic 175,393 112,569 166,264 111,189 Net (loss) income per share applicable to common stockholders - basic $ (0.15) $ (0.24) $ (0.49) $ 0.13 Dilutive Earnings (Loss) Per Share: Numerator: Net (loss) income $ (25,442) $ (26,344) $ (80,954) $ 15,220 Less: Deemed Dividend — $ (147) — $ (147) Less: Income attributable to participating securities - diluted $ — $ — $ — $ (2,473) Net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders - diluted $ (25,442) $ (26,491) $ (80,954) $ 12,600 Denominator: Weighted average shares outstanding 175,393 112,569 166,264 111,189 Dilutive impact from: Stock options and employee stock purchase plan — — — 14 Weighted average common shares outstanding for diluted 175,393 112,569 166,264 111,203 Net (loss) income per share applicable to common stockholders - diluted $ (0.15) $ (0.24) $ (0.49) $ 0.11 The following potentially dilutive securities outstanding as of June 30, 2021 and 2020 have been excluded from the denominator of the diluted (loss) income per share of common stock outstanding calculation as their effect is anti-dilutive (in thousands): Three Months ended June 30, Six Months ended 2021 2020 2021 2020 Warrants 1,394 2,485 1,394 55 Stock options 17,349 9,990 17,349 9,989 18,743 12,475 18,743 10,044 |

The 2014 Plan became effective immediately prior to the closing of the Company's IPO in February 2014 and provides for the grant of incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights and other stock-based awards, with amounts and terms of grants determined by the Company's board of directors at the time of grant, to the Company's employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors. Currently there are only stock options outstanding under the 2014 Plan, which generally vest over a four-year period at the rate of 25% of the grant vesting on the first anniversary of the date of grant and 6.25% of the grant vesting at the end of each successive three month period thereafter. Stock options granted under the 2014 Plan are exercisable for a period of ten years from the date of grant. There were approximately 12.4 million stock options outstanding under the 2014 Plan as of June 30, 2021. At the Annual Meeting of the Company's stockholders in June 2019, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment to the 2014 Plan that (i) increased by 7.9 million the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2014 Plan and (ii) eliminated the “evergreen” or automatic replenishment provision of the 2014 Plan, pursuant to which the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 2014 Plan was automatically increased on an annual basis. At the Annual Meeting of the Company’s stockholders in May 2021, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the 2014 Plan that increased by 12 million the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2014 Plan. There were approximately 12.3 million shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2014 Plan as of June 30, 2021. 2009 Stock Incentive Plan The Company maintains a 2009 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated ("2009 Plan"), which provided for the grant of incentive and non-qualified stock options and restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, with amounts and terms of grants determined by the Company's board of directors at the time of grant, to its employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors. Upon the closing of its IPO in February 2014, the Company ceased granting awards under the 2009 Plan and all shares (i) available for issuance under the 2009 Plan at such time and (ii) subject to outstanding awards under the 2009 Plan that expire, terminate or are otherwise surrendered, canceled, forfeited or repurchased without having been fully exercised or resulting in any common stock being issued were carried over to the 2014 Plan. Stock options granted under the 2009 Plan are exercisable for a period of ten years from the date of grant. There were approximately 0.1 million fully vested stock options outstanding under the 2009 Plan as of June 30, 2021.

EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS | EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan The Company's 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("2014 ESPP") was adopted by its board of directors in December 2013 and subsequently approved by its stockholders in January 2014. The 2014 ESPP became effective immediately prior to the closing of the Company's IPO in February 2014 and established an initial reserve of 0.2 million shares of the Company's common stock for issuance to participating employees. At the Annual Meeting of the Company's stockholders in May 2021, the Company's stockholders approved an amendment to the 2014 ESPP that increased by 2.3 million the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2014 ESPP. The purpose of the 2014 ESPP is to enhance employee interest in the success and progress of the Company by encouraging employee ownership of common stock of the Company. The 2014 ESPP provides employees with the opportunity to purchase shares of common stock at a 15% discount to the market price through payroll deductions or lump sum cash investments. The Company estimates the number of shares to be issued at the end of an offering period and recognizes expense over the requisite service period. Shares of the common stock issued and sold pursuant to the 2014 ESPP are shown on the consolidated statements of changes in stockholders' equity (deficit). As of June 30, 2021, there were 2.3 million shares of common stock available for sale under the 2014 ESPP.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
LICENSE AGREEMENTS | LICENSE AGREEMENTS In-License Agreements License Agreement with Zurich The Company has a License Agreement with the University of Zurich ("Zurich") which grants the Company exclusive license rights, with the right to sublicense, to make, have made, use and sell under certain patents primarily directed to the Company's targeting agent, including an EpCAM chimera and related immunoconjugates and methods of use and manufacture of the same. These patents cover some key aspects of Vicineum. The Company may be obligated to pay $0.50 million in milestone payments for the first product candidate that achieves applicable clinical development milestones. Based on current status, the Company anticipates that these milestones may be triggered by Vicineum's clinical development pathway. As part of the consideration, the Company is also obligated to pay up to a 4% royalty on the net product sales for products covered by or manufactured using a method covered by a valid claim in the Zurich patent rights. Royalties owed to Zurich will be reduced if the total royalty rate owed by the Company to Zurich and any other third party is 10% or greater, provided that the royalty rate to Zurich may not be less than 2% of net sales. The obligation to pay royalties in a particular country expires upon the expiration or termination of the last of the Zurich patent rights that covers the manufacture, use or sale of a product. There is no obligation to pay royalties in a country if there is no valid claim that covers the product or a method of manufacturing the product. The Company recorded an expense of $0.3 million related to achievement of a development milestone in the three months ended December 31, 2020 due to the submission of the Company's BLA application with the FDA in December 2020. License Agreement with Micromet The Company has a License Agreement with Micromet AG ("Micromet"), now part of Amgen, Inc., which grants it nonexclusive rights, with certain sublicense rights, for know-how and patents allowing exploitation of certain single chain antibody products. These patents cover some key aspects of Vicineum. Under the terms of the License Agreement with Micromet, as of June 30, 2021, the Company may be obligated to pay up to €2.4 million in milestone payments for the first product candidate that achieves applicable regulatory and sales-based development milestones (approximately $2.9 million at exchange rates in effect on June 30, 2021). Based on current development status, the Company anticipates that certain of these milestones may be triggered by the development pathway of Vicineum. The Company is also required to pay up to a 3.5% royalty on the net sales for products covered by the agreement, which includes Vicineum. The royalty rate owed to Micromet in a particular country will be reduced to 1.5% if there are no valid claims covering the product in that country. The obligation to pay royalties in a particular country expires upon the later of the expiration date of the last valid claim covering the product and the tenth anniversary of the first commercial sale of the product in such country. Finally, the Company is required to pay to Micromet an annual license maintenance fee of €50,000 (approximately $59,420 at exchange rates in effect as of June 30, 2021), which can be credited towards any royalty payment the Company owes to Micromet. The Company recorded an expense of €0.7 million ($0.9 million) related to achievement of development milestones in the three months ended December 31, 2020, due to the submission of the Company's BLA for Vicineum with the FDA in December 2020. The Company recorded an expense of €0.5 million (approximately $0.6 million) related to the submission of the Marketing Authorization Application (“MAA”) to the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) for Vicineum in the first quarter of 2021. License Agreement with XOMA The Company has a License Agreement with XOMA Ireland Limited ("XOMA") which grants it non-exclusive rights to certain XOMA patent rights and know-how related to certain expression technology, including plasmids, expression strains, plasmid maps and production systems. These patents and related know-how cover some key aspects of Vicineum. Under the terms of the License Agreement with XOMA, the Company is required to pay up to $0.25 million in milestone payments for a product candidate that incorporates know-how under the license and achieves applicable clinical development milestones. Based on current clinical status, the Company anticipates that these milestones may be triggered by Vicineum’s clinical development pathway. The Company is also required to pay a 2.5% royalty on the net sales for products incorporating XOMA’s technology, which includes Vicineum. The Company has the right to reduce the amount of royalties owed to XOMA on a country-by-country basis by the amount of royalties paid to other third parties, provided that the royalty rate to XOMA may not be less than 1.75% of net sales. In addition, the foregoing royalty rates are reduced by 50% with respect to products that are not covered by a valid patent claim in the country of sale. The obligation to pay royalties in a particular country expires upon the later of the expiration date of the last valid claim covering the product and the tenth anniversary of the first commercial sale of the product in such country. Out-License Agreements Roche License Agreement In June 2016, the Company entered into the License Agreement with F. Hoffmann-LA Roche Ltd and Hoffman-La Roche Inc. (collectively, "Roche"), pursuant to which the Company granted Roche an exclusive, worldwide license, including the right to sublicense, to its patent rights and know-how related to the Company’s monoclonal antibody EBI-031 and all other IL-6 anti-IL-6 antagonist monoclonal antibody technology owned by the Company (collectively, the "Roche Licensed Intellectual Property"). Under the License Agreement with Roche, Roche is required to continue developing, at its cost, EBI-031 and any other product made from the Roche Licensed Intellectual Property that contains an IL-6 antagonist anti-IL monoclonal antibody (“Roche Licensed Product”) and pursue ongoing patent prosecution, at its cost. Financial Terms The Company received from Roche an upfront license fee of $7.5 million in August 2016 upon the effectiveness of the License Agreement with Roche following approval by the Company's stockholders, and Roche agreed to pay up to an additional $262.5 million upon the achievement of specified regulatory, development and commercialization milestones with respect to up to two unrelated indications. Specifically, an aggregate amount of up to $197.5 million is payable to the Company for the achievement of specified milestones with respect to the first indication, consisting of (i) $72.5 million in development milestones, the next of which is $20.0 million for initiation of the first Phase II study, (ii) $50 million in regulatory milestones and (iii) $75 million in commercialization milestones. In September 2016, Roche paid the Company the first development milestone of $22.5 million as a result of the Investigational New Drug application for EBI-031 becoming effective on or before September 15, 2016. Additional amounts of up to $65 million are payable upon the achievement of specified development and regulatory milestones in a second indication. In addition, the Company is entitled to receive royalty payments in accordance with a tiered royalty rate scale, with rates ranging from 7.5% to 15% of net sales of potential future products containing EBI-031 and up to 50% of these rates for net sales of potential future products containing other IL-6 compounds, with each of the royalties subject to reduction under certain circumstances and to the buy-out options of Roche. Buy-Out Options The License Agreement with Roche provides for two “option periods” during which Roche may elect to make a one-time payment to the Company and, in turn, terminate its diligence, milestone and royalty payment obligations under the License Agreement. Specifically, (i) Roche may exercise a buy-out option following the first dosing (“Initiation”) in the first Phase 2 study for a Roche Licensed Product until the day before Initiation of the first Phase 3 study for a Roche Licensed Product, in which case Roche is required to pay the Company $135 million within 30 days after Roche's exercise of such buy-out option and receipt of an invoice from the Company, or (ii) Roche may exercise a buy-out option following the day after Initiation of the first Phase 3 study for a Roche Licensed Product until the day before the acceptance for review by the FDA or other regulatory authority of a BLA or similar application for marketing approval for a Roche Licensed Product in either the United States or in the E.U., in which case Roche is required to pay the Company, within 30 days after Roche’s exercise of such buy-out option and receipt of an invoice from the Company, $265 million, which amount would be reduced to $220 million if none of the Company’s patent rights containing a composition of matter claim covering any compound or Roche Licensed Product has issued in the E.U. Termination Either the Company or Roche may each terminate the License Agreement with Roche if the other party breaches any of its material obligations under the agreement and does not cure such breach within a specified cure period. Roche may terminate the License Agreement with Roche following effectiveness by providing advance written notice to the Company or by providing written notice if the Company is debarred, disqualified, suspended, excluded, or otherwise declared ineligible from certain federal or state agencies or programs. The Company may terminate the License Agreement with Roche if, prior to the first filing of a BLA for a Roche Licensed Product, there is a period of twelve months where Roche is not conducting sufficient development activities with respect to the products made from the Roche Licensed Intellectual Property. OUS Business Development Partnership Agreements Qilu License Agreement On July 30, 2020, the Company and its a wholly-owned subsidiary, Viventia Bio, Inc., entered into an exclusive license agreement with Qilu Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (“Qilu”) pursuant to which the Company granted Qilu an exclusive, sublicensable, royalty-bearing license, under certain intellectual property owned or exclusively licensed by the Company, to develop, manufacture and commercialize Vicineum (the “Licensed Product”) for the treatment of NMIBC and other types of cancer (the “Field”) in China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan ("Greater China”). The Company also granted Qilu a non-exclusive, sublicensable, royalty-bearing sublicense, under certain other intellectual property licensed by the Company to develop, manufacture and commercialize the Licensed Product in the Greater China. The Company retains (i) development, and commercialization rights in the rest of the world excluding Greater China, the Middle East and North Africa region ("MENA”) and Turkey and (ii) manufacturing rights with respect to Vicineum in the rest of the world excluding China. In consideration for the rights granted by the Company, Qilu agreed to pay to the Company a one-time upfront cash payment of $12 million, and milestone payments totaling up to $23 million upon the achievement of certain technology transfer, development and regulatory milestones. All payments were to be inclusive of value-added tax ("VAT"), which can be withheld by Qilu upon payment, and for which future recovery of such taxes may be available. Qilu also agreed to pay the Company a 12% royalty based upon annual net sales of Licensed Products in Greater China. The royalties are payable on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and region-by-region basis commencing on the first commercial sale of a Licensed Product in a region and continuing until the latest of (i) twelve years after the first commercial sale of such Licensed Product in such region, (ii) the expiration of the last valid patent claim covering or claiming the composition of matter, method of treatment, or method of manufacture of such Licensed Product in such region, and (iii) the expiration of regulatory or data exclusivity for such Licensed Product in such region (collectively, the “Royalty Terms”). The royalty rate is subject to reduction under certain circumstances, including when there is no valid claim of a licensed patent that covers a Licensed Product in a particular region or no data or regulatory exclusivity of a Licensed Product in a particular region. Qilu is responsible for all costs related to developing, obtaining regulatory approval of and commercializing the Licensed Products in the Field in Greater China. Qilu is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop, seek regulatory approval for, and commercialize at least one Licensed Product in the Field in Greater China. A joint development committee was established between the Company and Qilu to coordinate and review the development, manufacturing and commercialization plans with respect to the Licensed Products in Greater China. The Company and Qilu also executed the terms and conditions of a supply agreement and related quality agreement pursuant to which the Company will manufacture or have manufactured and supply Qilu with all quantities of the Licensed Product necessary for Qilu to develop and commercialize the Licensed Product in the Field in Greater China until the Company has completed manufacturing technology transfer to Qilu and approval of a Qilu manufactured product by the National Medical Products Administration in China ("NMPA") for the Licensed Product has been obtained. The License Agreement with Qilu will expire on a Licensed Product-by-Licensed Product and region-by-region basis on the date of the expiration of all applicable Royalty Terms. Either party may terminate the License Agreement with Qilu for the other party’s material breach following a cure period or upon certain insolvency events. Qilu has the right to receive a refund of all amounts paid to the Company in the event the License Agreement with Qilu is terminated under certain circumstances. The License Agreement with Qilu includes customary representations and warranties, covenants and indemnification obligations for a transaction of this nature. The License Agreement with Qilu is subject to the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), which was adopted effective January 1, 2018. In 2020, the initial transaction price was estimated to be $11.2 million and was based on the up-front fixed consideration of $12 million less amounts withheld for VAT. The Company concluded that its promises under the License Agreement with Qilu represented one bundled performance obligation that had been achieved as of September 30, 2020. As such, $11.2 million of the total $11.2 million transaction price was considered earned and the Company recorded $11.2 million of revenue during the three-month period ended September 30, 2020. The Investigational New Drug application for Vicineum submitted by Qilu to the Center for Drug Evaluation of the NMPA was accepted for review in January 2021 and approved in March 2021, resulting in a $3 million dollar milestone payment from Qilu, the first milestone payment out of the $23 million in potential milestone payments. The Company recorded $2.8 million (net of VAT) as license revenue during the three-month period ended March 31, 2021. The Company recorded the outstanding $2.8 million to accounts receivables as of March 31,2021 and received the payment as of June 30, 2021. In June 2021, the Qilu License Agreement was recognized by Shandong Province, Bureau of Science and Technology as a "Technology Transfer". An agreement that is designated as a Technology Transfer shall be entitled to a tax incentive of VAT recovery. As such, the Company recorded $0.9 million of revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2021 for additional purchase price resulting from Qilu's obligation to pay Sesen an amount equal to its recovery of VAT. The Company will not be subject to VAT on future potential milestone payments. Other OUS Business Development Partnership Agreements On November 30, 2020, the Company entered into a license agreement with a third party pursuant to which the Company granted an exclusive, sublicensable, royalty-bearing license, under certain intellectual property owned or exclusively licensed by the Company, to commercialize Vicineum in the MENA region, ("the MENA License Agreement"). The Company retains development and commercialization rights in the rest of the world excluding Greater China and MENA. In consideration for the rights granted by the Company, the counterparty to the MENA License Agreement agreed to pay to the Company an upfront payment of $3 million, which would be subject to certain tax withholdings. In addition, the counterparty agreed to pay to the Company milestone payments upon the achievement of certain sales-based milestones as well as a royalty based upon annual net sales in the MENA region for the term of the MENA License Agreement. |

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | 6 Months Ended |
Jun. 30, 2021 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Interim Financial Statements | Interim Financial Statements The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the books and records of the Company in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which permit reduced disclosures for interim periods. All adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows have been made. Although these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete annual financial statements, management believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These unaudited interim results of operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on March 15, 2021, wherein a more complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain other information can be found. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP and the rules and regulations of the SEC requires the use of estimates and assumptions, based on judgments considered reasonable, which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Although management believes its estimates and assumptions are reasonable when made, they are based upon information available at the time they are made. Management evaluates the estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and, if necessary, makes adjustments. Due to the risks and uncertainties involved in the Company’s business and evolving market conditions, and given the subjective element of the estimates and assumptions made, actual results may differ from estimated results. The most significant estimates and judgments impact the fair value of intangible assets, goodwill and contingent consideration; income taxes (including the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets); research and development expenses; revenue recognition and going concern considerations. |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of ConsolidationThe Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiary Viventia and its indirect subsidiaries, Viventia Bio USA Inc. and Viventia Biotech (EU) Limited. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Foreign Currency Translation | Foreign Currency Translation The functional currency of the Company and each of its subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Adopted in 2021 In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes ("ASU 2019-12"). ASU 2019-12 simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments in ASU 2019-12 also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The method with which the amendments in this ASU are to be applied varies depending on the nature of the tax item impacted by amendment. |
Fair Value Measurement | The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, prepaid expenses and other current assets, and accounts payable on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets approximated their fair values as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 due to their short-term nature. Certain of the Company’s financial instruments are measured at fair value using a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This fair value hierarchy prioritizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows: Level 1 : Inputs are quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 : Inputs are quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; or model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable. |
