Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization and description of business | Note 1. Eidos Therapeutics, Inc., or the Company, was incorporated as an S corporation in the state of Delaware on August 6, 2013. The Company was converted into a C corporation on April 4, 2016 in conjunction with its Series Seed redeemable convertible preferred stock financing. The Company is advancing a drug candidate to treat multiple forms of transthyretin amyloidosis, which leads to organ damage, loss of organ function and eventual death from abnormal buildup of protein deposits predominantly in the heart and peripheral nervous system. The Company has been primarily engaged in business planning, research and development, recruiting personnel, and raising capital. The Company is headquartered in San Francisco, California and it operates as one operating segment. Stock split In June 2018, the Company’s board of directors approved an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to effect a stock-split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock at a 1.196-for-1 ratio, which was effected on June 7, 2018. In connection with the stock split, the authorized shares of common stock were increased from 27,000,000 to 32,292,000. The par value of common stock and redeemable convertible preferred stock was not adjusted as a result of the stock split. All issued and outstanding common stock, options to purchase common stock and per share amounts contained in the financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the stock split for all periods presented. Liquidity The Company has incurred net losses from operations since inception and has an accumulated deficit of $65.3 million as of December 31, 2018. The Company’s ultimate success depends on the outcome of its research and development activities. The Company expects to incur additional losses in the future and it anticipates the need to raise additional capital to fully implement its business plan. Through December 31, 2018, the Company has financed its operations through private placements of redeemable convertible preferred stock, convertible promissory notes, and an initial public offering (IPO) of common stock. On June 19, 2018, the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-225235) relating to its IPO of common stock became effective. The IPO closed on June 22, 2018, at which time the Company issued 7,187,500 shares of its common stock at a price of $17.00 per share, which included shares issued upon the underwriters’ exercise of their overallotment option to purchase 937,500 additional shares. In addition, upon closing the IPO, all outstanding shares of the redeemable convertible preferred stock and warrants converted into 24,231,517 shares of common stock. As of December 31, 2018, there are no shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock outstanding. Upon completion of the IPO, the Company received an aggregate of $111.0 million in cash, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, and after deducting offering costs paid by the Company. The Company will continue to seek funds through equity or debt financings, or through other sources of financing, but there is no assurance that such financing will be available at terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2. Basis of preparation These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. These financial statements include transactions with , a controlling stockholder in the Company. For the periods presented, BBP LLC has provided consulting and management services to the Company in the ordinary course of business, including certain executive personnel, facility related costs, advisory services, insurance costs, and other general corporate expenses. These allocations were made based on direct usage, when identifiable, with the remainder allocated primarily based on a proportional share of headcount. The Company’s historical financial statements do not purport to reflect what the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows would have been if the Company had operated as an independent entity during the periods presented. Management believes the basis on which the expenses have been allocated to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services provided to or the benefit received by the Company during the periods presented. For more information on the allocated costs and related party transactions, see Note 6. 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 as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related the fair value of the redemption feature embedded derivative liability, the fair value of the redeemable convertible preferred stock tranche liability, the fair value of the redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability, the fair value of the Company’s common stock, stock-based compensation, the useful lives of fixed assets, accruals for research and development activities, and income taxes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on other relevant assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Concentrations of credit risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. All the Company’s funds are held by one financial institution that management believes is of high credit quality. Such deposits may, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company’s cash equivalents are invested in highly-rated money market funds. Cash and cash equivalents All highly-liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less when purchased that are readily convertible into cash and have an insignificant interest rate risk are considered to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents at December 31, 2017. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $157.1 million. Fair value of financial instruments The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments, including accounts payable and accrued expenses and other payables approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities. See Note 3 Property and equipment, net Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the balance sheet and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations in the period realized. Impairment of long-lived assets The Company reviews long-lived assets, primarily comprised of property and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by comparison of the carrying amount to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows which the assets or asset groups are expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets or asset groups exceeds the estimated discounted future cash flows arising from the assets or asset groups. There have been no such impairments of long-lived assets for any of the periods presented. Research and development costs and accrued research and development Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and consist of salaries and benefits, stock-based compensation expense, lab supplies and facility costs, as well as fees paid to others that conduct certain research and development activities on the Company’s behalf. The Company accrues for estimated costs of research and development activities conducted by third-party service providers, which include the conduct of preclinical studies and clinical trials, and contract manufacturing activities. The Company records the estimated costs of research and development activities based upon the estimated amount of services provided but not yet invoiced and includes these costs in accrued expenses and other payables in the balance sheets and within research and development expense in the statements of operations. These costs are a significant component of the Company’s research and development expenses. The Company accrues for these costs based on factors such as estimates of the work completed and in accordance with agreements established with its third-party service providers. The Company makes significant judgments and estimates in determining the accrued liabilities balance at each reporting date. As actual costs become known, the Company adjusts its accrued liabilities. The Company has not experienced any material differences between accrued costs and actual costs incurred. However, the status and timing of actual services performed, number of patients enrolled, and the rate of patient enrollments may vary from the Company’s estimates, resulting in adjustments to expense in future periods. Changes in these estimates that result in material changes to the Company’s accruals could materially affect the Company’s results of operations. Accrued repurchase liability for common stock The Company records as a liability, within accrued expenses and other current liabilities, the purchase price of unvested common stock that the Company has a right to repurchase if and when the stockholder ceases to be a service provider to the Company before the end of the requisite service period. The proceeds are recorded as a liability and the proceeds related to the vested common stock is reclassified to additional paid-in capital as the Company’s repurchase right lapses. Redeemable convertible preferred stock tranche liabilities The Company determined that its obligations to issue additional shares of preferred stock upon the achievement of certain milestones or at the option of the respective holders of such shares represent freestanding financial instruments. These instruments initially measured at fair value and are subject to remeasurement with changes in fair value recognized in other income (expense), net in the statements of operations. There were no such liabilities outstanding at December 31, 2018 or 2017, respectively. Embedded derivative liability and deemed dividend The Company determined that the automatic conversion of the Convertible Promissory Notes payable issued in 2018 into new shares of preferred stock at 70% of the issuance price of such shares upon the closing of a qualified financing is an embedded derivative liability to be measured at fair value. As this instrument was issued to stockholders, the Company treated the initial recognition as a deemed dividend included in additional paid in capital at its fair value of $6.5 million. The embedded derivative liability was subject to remeasurement with changes in fair value recognized in other income (expense), net in the statements of operations. The embedded derivative liability balance was settled upon the conversion of the convertible promissory notes into Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock (Series B Preferred Stock) in March 2018. The deemed dividend impacted loss available to common stockholders and earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2018 . Gain on extinguishment of convertible promissory notes payable In March 2018, upon the conversion of the Convertible Promissory Notes into Series B Preferred Stock the Company recognized a gain on debt extinguishment. As the Convertible Promissory Notes were issued to stockholders, we treated the gain on debt extinguishment as a capital contribution included in additional paid in capital. The gain on extinguishment of convertible promissory notes payable impacted loss available to common stockholders and earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2018. Net Loss per Attributable to Common Stockholders and Net Loss per Share Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders taking into account the deemed dividend and gain on extinguishment of convertible promissory notes payable by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per common share is the same as basic net loss attributable to common stockholders per share since the effects of potentially dilutive securities are antidilutive given the Company’s loss position. Stock-based compensation The Company periodically grants stock options and awards to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions as compensation for services rendered. The Company accounts for stock option grants to employees, whereby the fair value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized over the vesting period. The Company accounts for stock option grants to non-employees whereby the amount of stock compensation expense recognized is determined based upon the measurement date at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. The Company believes that the estimated fair value of stock options is more readily measurable than the fair value of the services rendered. The fair value of the Company's common stock option grants is estimated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the common stock options, and future dividends. Compensation expense is recognized based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes option pricing model and based on actual experience. The Company has elected to recognize the actual forfeitures by reducing the employee stock-based compensation expense in the same period as the forfeitures occur. The Company has in the past issued restricted shares of its common stock for share-based compensation programs. The Company measures compensation cost with respect to restricted shares issued to employees based upon the estimated fair value of the equity instruments at the date of the grant, with expenses recognized over the period which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award. Income taxes The Company uses the asset and liability method to account for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and tax loss and credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates applied to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. To date, there have been no interest or penalties recorded for unrecognized tax benefits. Recent accounting pronouncements In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842 The Company In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Stock-based Compensation: Improvements to Nonemployee Share-based Payment Accounting date of Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Entities will apply the ASU by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual period of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2018-07 will have on its financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement , which amends ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. This ASU modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements by removing, modifying, or adding certain disclosures. The effective date is the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, with early adoption permitted for the removed disclosures and delayed adoption until fiscal year 2020 permitted for the new disclosures. The removed and modified disclosures will be adopted on a retrospective basis and the new disclosures will be adopted on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2018-07 will have on its financial statements. |

Fair Value Measurement | Note 3. Fair value measurements Financial assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value. The accounting guidance for fair value provides a framework for measuring fair value, clarifies the definition of fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The accounting guidance establishes a three-tiered hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2—Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value. There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 categories during the periods presented. Financial assets measured and recognized at fair value are as follows (in thousands): December 31, 2018 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Money Market Funds $ 157,147 $ 157,147 $ — $ — Total $ 157,147 $ 157,147 $ — $ — There were no financial liabilities at either December 31, 2017 or 2018, and no financial assets outside of cash in an operating account as of December 31, 2017. Following is the activity related to Level 3 financial assets and liabilities of the Company. Embedded derivative liability in the convertible promissory notes payable The Convertible Promissory Notes payable issued in February 2018 had a redemption feature which was determined to be an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation and separate accounting. The fair value of the derivative was determined based on an income approach that identified the cash flows using a “with-and-without” valuation methodology. The inputs used to determine the estimated fair value of the derivative instrument were based primarily on the probability of an underlying event triggering the embedded derivative occurring and the timing of such event.

Convertible Promissory Notes | Note 5. Convertible promissory notes September 2015 Convertible Note In September 2015, the Company entered into a convertible note with a related party, a stockholder of the Company. The principal amount of the convertible note was $25,000 with a fixed interest rate of 5% per annum. The note was convertible at the option of the holder at the next equity financing of at least $1.5 million at a price of 80% of the new equity price. The redemption feature was deemed to be a freestanding derivative with an initial fair value of $6,000. In April 2016, the entire amount due, including accrued interest of $1,000, was converted into 24,202 shares of Series Seed redeemable convertible preferred stock. February 2018 Promissory Notes In February 2018, the Company entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement with BBP LLC and Stanford University (the Convertible Promissory Notes). The Company issued two Convertible Promissory Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $10.0 million. The Convertible Promissory Notes had a maturity date of the earliest of a qualified financing, a deemed liquidation event, a qualified initial public offering, or February 2019. The Convertible Promissory Notes had an annual interest rate of 5.0%. The Convertible Promissory Notes were convertible into future preferred stock at a 30% discount to the price paid by investors in the Company’s next preferred equity financing of at least $10.0 million or convertible into common stock at the price per share in an IPO with aggregate proceeds of at least $30.0 million. In connection with the Convertible Promissory Notes, the Company issued warrants for the purchase of $4.0 million in shares of the Company’s Series Seed redeemable convertible preferred stock or the Company’s preferred stock in the next equity financing. The warrant exercise period commenced upon the earlier of the closing of the next qualified financing and the consummation of a deemed liquidation event. The exercise price of the warrant was the price per share in the next equity financing if the warrant was exercisable for the Company’s redeemable convertible preferred stock in the next qualified financing, or $1.3248 per share if the warrant was exercisable for shares of Series Seed redeemable convertible preferred stock. Upon issuance of the Convertible Promissory Notes, the Company recorded the fair value of the warrants of $0.9 million as a debt discount and redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability. The Company also determined that a beneficial conversion feature existed at the time the Convertible Promissory Notes were issued because the fair value of the securities into which the Convertible Promissory Notes were convertible at the time of issuance, Series Seed redeemable convertible preferred stock, was greater than the effective conversion price on the borrowing date. Accordingly, the Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature of $9.1 million. The beneficial conversion feature was recorded as a debt discount with an offset to additional paid-in capital. The discounts associated with both the warrants and beneficial conversion feature were amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method through February 2019, the contractual maturity date of the Convertible Promissory Notes. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recognized interest expense of $1.0 million. The Convertible Promissory Notes also contained a redemption feature that was determined to be an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation. The fair value of the embedded derivative liability at issuance was determined to be $6.5 million and was recorded as a deemed dividend as the transaction was with stockholders. Changes in the fair value of the redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability and embedded derivative liability have been recorded within other income (expense), net, in the statement of operations. Upon completion of the Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock (Series B Preferred Stock) offering in March 2018, the Convertible Promissory Notes were redeemed under their qualified financing redemption feature whereby the aggregate of the outstanding principal and accrued interest balance of the Convertible Promissory Notes of $10.0 million was converted into 1,324,823 shares of Series B preferred stock at a conversion price of $7.5844 per share resulting in issuance of $14.4 million of Series B Preferred Stock. The redemption of the Convertible Promissory Notes was accounted for as a debt extinguishment, which resulted in a gain of $7.4 million. The extinguishment gain was recognized in equity and included the reacquisition of the beneficial conversion feature which was measured using the intrinsic value of the conversion option at the extinguishment date of $14.4 million and the settlement of the embedded derivative liability of $6.5 million. This gain was recorded in additional paid-in capital since the holders of the Convertible Promissory Notes were stockholders and the arrangement was considered a capital transaction. The warrants associated with the Convertible Promissory Notes also became warrants to purchase 369,180 shares of the Company’s Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock at an exercise price of $10.8348 per share. These warrants were net exercised upon the completion of the IPO into 206,247 shares of the Company’s common stock. |

The freestanding redeemable convertible preferred stock tranche liability (Series Seed Tranche Liability) was initially recorded at fair value, with fair value changes recognized as increases or reductions in other income (expense), net in the statements of operations. The Company continued to adjust the liability for changes in the estimated fair value until the settlement of the Series Seed Tranche Liability. The Company recorded a Series Seed Tranche Liability in April 2016 of $0.3 million related to the Series Seed Preferred Stock financing. The Company estimated the fair value of the Series Seed Tranche Liability using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions to determine the fair value of the redeemable convertible preferred stock tranche liability: Expected term— The expected term represents the period for which the redeemable convertible preferred stock tranche liabilities are expected to be outstanding. Expected volatility— The volatility data was estimated based on a study of publicly traded industry peer companies, as there is no trading history for the Company’s redeemable convertible preferred stock. For purposes of identifying these comparable peer companies, the Company considered the industry, stage of development, size and financial leverage. The Company has measured historical volatility over a period equivalent to the expected term and believes that historical volatility provides a reasonable estimate of future expected volatility. Expected dividends —The Black-Scholes valuation model calls for a single expected dividend yield as an input. The Company currently has no history or expectation of paying cash dividends on its preferred stock. Risk-free interest rate— The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues similar in duration to the expected term of the redeemable convertible preferred stock tranche liability. The Black-Scholes option pricing model resulted in a tranche liability of $0.1 million for the second milestone closing and $0.2 million for the third milestone closing using the following assumptions: estimated equity value of $2.1 million, a term of three years, a risk-free rate of 0.92%, a volatility of 75%, and a dividend yield of 0.0%. The second milestone closing of the Series Seed Tranche Liability The Series Seed Tranche Liability for the third milestone was settled in March 2017 at the time of the final tranche closing of the Series Seed Preferred Stock and the remeasured liability balance of $0.2 million was reclassified to redeemable convertible preferred stock. The final closing fair value was remeasured with the following assumptions: estimated equity value was $4.0 million, a term of 2.3 years, a risk-free rate of 1.40%, a volatility of 70% and a dividend yield of 0.0%. Series B Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock In March 2018, the Company entered into a Series B Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, or the Series B Agreement, for the issuance of up to 7,231,700 shares of Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock at a price of $10.8348 per share in two closings. Upon the initial closing on March 29, 2018, 1,476,715 shares of Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock were issued for gross proceeds of $16.0 million and 1,324,823 shares were issued upon conversion of the outstanding Convertible Promissory Notes principal balance and accrued interest of $10.0 million into $14.4 million of Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Agreement provided that the Company could issue an additional 4,430,162 shares under the same terms as the initial closing, in an additional closing contingent upon the achievement of certain milestone. Either the investors or the Company could provide written notice for the additional closing to occur. The Company determined that its obligation to issue additional shares of its redeemable convertible preferred stock and the Company’s right to request investors to purchase additional shares of its redeemable convertible preferred stock represents a freestanding financial instrument. The freestanding redeemable convertible preferred stock tranche liability (Series B Tranche Liability) was initially recorded at fair value, with fair value changes recorded within other income (expense), net in the statement of operations. The Company continued to adjust the Series B Tranche Liability for changes in the fair value until the settlement of the redeemable convertible preferred stock additional closing in May 2018. The Company recorded the Series B Tranche Liability in March 2018 of $0.1 million related to the Series B Preferred Stock. The Company estimated the fair value of the Series B Tranche Liability using a Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: Expected term —The expected term represents the period for which the redeemable convertible preferred stock tranche liability is expected to be outstanding, which is estimated to be the remaining contractual term. Expected volatility —The volatility data was estimated based on a study of publicly traded industry peer companies, as there is no trading history for the Company’s redeemable convertible preferred stock. For purposes of identifying these comparable peer companies, the Company considered the industry, stage of development, size and financial leverage. The Company has measured historical volatility over a period equivalent to the expected term and believes that historical volatility provides a reasonable estimate of future expected volatility. Expected dividends —The Black-Scholes valuation model calls for a single expected dividend yield as an input. The Company currently has no history or expectation of paying cash dividends on its redeemable convertible preferred stock. Risk-free interest rate —The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues similar in duration to the expected term of the redeemable convertible preferred stock tranche liability and put option asset. The Company used the following assumptions: a term of 0.08 years, a risk-free rate of 1.63%, a volatility of 36.4%, and a dividend yield of 0.0%. In May 2018, the Company completed the closing of the Series B Preferred Stock second tranche and issued 4,430,162 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for net cash proceeds of $48.0 million. At this time the Series B Tranche Liability was remeasured at $0.7 million, determined using a probability-weighted expected return method (PWERM). The PWERM included probabilities of three scenarios including an IPO occurring in June 2018, staying private, and bankruptcy. The scenarios were weighted based on the Company’s estimate of each event occurring in deriving the estimated fair value. Upon the closing of the Series B Preferred Stock second tranche, the Series B Tranche Liability of $0.7 million was reclassified to Series B Preferred Stock . |

Stockholders' Equity and Stock-Based Compensation | Note 9. Stockholders’ equity and stock-based compensation Common stock The Company has reserved shares of common stock for issuance as follows: December 31, 2018 2017 2016 Redeemable convertible preferred stock outstanding, as converted — 15,376,164 3,640,055 Options issued and outstanding 1,329,762 846,166 30,068 Options available for future grants 747,057 670,994 643,922 ESPP shares available for future grants 130,166 — — 2,206,985 16,893,324 4,314,045 Stock plans Equity Incentive Plan 2016 Equity Incentive Plan In April 2016, the Company established its 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2016 Plan, which provides for the granting of equity awards to employees and consultants of the Company. Awards granted under the 2016 Plan may be either incentive stock options, or ISOs, nonqualified stock options, or NSOs or restricted stock awards. ISOs may be granted only to Company employees (including officers and directors who are also employees). NSOs may be granted to Company employees and consultants. The exercise price of an ISO and NSO shall not be less than 100% of the estimated fair value of the shares on the date of grant, as determined by the board of directors. The exercise price of an ISO granted to an employee who at the time of grant is a 10% stockholder shall not be less than 110% of the estimated fair value of the shares on the date of grant, as determined by the board of directors. To date, ISOs and NSOs have a term of ten years and generally vest over a four-year period with annual cliff vesting and the balance monthly over 36 months. Upon completion of the Company’s IPO, the remaining shares available for issuance under the 2016 Plan were retired. Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Option and Incentive Plan In May 2018, the Company’s board of directors and stockholders approved the Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, or the 2018 Plan, to replace the 2016 Plan, which became effective upon the IPO. The 2018 Plan is administered by the board of directors or a committee appointed by the board of directors, which determines the types of awards to be granted, including the number of shares subject to the awards, the exercise price and the vesting schedule. Under the 2018 Plan, 598,000 shares of the Company’s common stock have been initially reserved for the issuance of stock options, restricted stock units and other awards to employees, directors and consultants. Options granted under the 2018 Plan expire no later than 10 years from the date of grant. The exercise price of each option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant. Options may be granted to stockholders possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stocks of the Company at an exercise price at least 110% of the fair value of the common stock at the date of grant and the options are not exercisable after the expiration of 10 years from the date of grant. Employee stock options generally vest 25% upon one year of continued service to the Company, with the remainder in monthly increments over three additional years. Upon adoption of the 2018 Plan, no additional stock awards will be issued under the 2016 Plan. Options granted under the 2016 Plan that were outstanding on the date the 2018 plan became effective remain subject to the terms of the 2016 Plan. In December 2018, the Company’s board of directors approved an increase in the number of shares reserved under the 2018 Plan by 700,000 shares. As of December 31, 2018, the Company has reserved 1,298,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2018 Plan, of which the 700,000 shares subject to the December 2018 increase remain subject to stockholder approval. Employee Stock Purchase Plan In May 2018, the Company’s board of directors and stockholders approved the 2018 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or the 2018 ESPP, which became effective upon the IPO. The 2018 ESPP is intended to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and is administered by the Company’s board of directors and the Compensation Committee of the board of directors. Under the 2018 ESPP, 143,520 shares of the Company’s common stock have been initially reserved for employee purchases of the Company’s common stock. The 2018 ESPP allows eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a discount through payroll deductions of up to 20% of their eligible compensation. At the end of each offering period, employees are able to purchase shares at 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the beginning of the offering period or at the end of each applicable purchase period. The first purchase period commenced upon the completion of the Company’s IPO and ended on November 30, 2018. The fair value of the rights granted under the 2018 ESPP was calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: Year Ended December 31, 2018 Expected term in years 0.48 Expected volatility 70.40% Risk-free interest rate 1.50% Dividend yield 0% Stock options Activity under the Company’s equity incentive plans is set forth below: Weighted- Average Weighted- Average Aggregate Options Exercise Remaining Intrinsic Available for Options Price Per Contractual Value Grant Outstanding Share Term (years) (in thousands) Outstanding—December 31, 2017 670,994 846,166 $ 0.59 9.97 $ 4,383 Options granted (399,074 ) 399,074 5.03 Options cancelled 321,916 (321,916 ) 0.59 Options retired (593,836 ) — — Additional authorized 1,298,000 — — Options granted (696,364 ) 696,364 15.45 Options exercised — (184,871 ) 1.48 Exercised options repurchased 40,366 — 0.33 Options canceled 105,055 (105,055 ) 13.67 Outstanding—December 31, 2018 747,057 1,329,762 $ 8.55 9.40 $ 6,928 Options exercisable – December 31, 2018 161,208 $ 1.34 8.96 $ 2,002 Options vested and expected to vest – December 31, 2018 1,329,762 $ 8.55 9.40 $ 6,928 Aggregate intrinsic value represents the difference between the Company’s estimated fair value of its common stock and the exercise price of outstanding in–the–money options. The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $0.9 million and $3.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The total fair value of shares vested during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 was $2.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Stock options valuation Prior to the completion of the Company’s IPO, the fair value of the Company’s shares of common stock underlying its stock options had historically been determined by the Company’s board of directors. Because there had been no public market for the Company’s common stock prior to June 2018, the Company’s board of directors had determined fair value of the common stock at the time of grant of the option by considering a number of objective and subjective factors including important developments in the Company’s operations, valuations performed by an independent third party, sales of redeemable convertible preferred stock, actual operating results and financial performance, the conditions in the biotechnology industry and the economy in general, the stock price performance and volatility of comparable public companies, and the lack of liquidity of the Company’s common stock, among other factors. For stock options granted after the completion of the IPO, the Company determines the fair value of each share of underlying common stock based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported on the date of grant. The determination of the fair value of stock-based payment awards on the date of grant is affected by the stock price, as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, actual and projected employee/consultant stock option exercise behaviors, risk-free interest rates, and expected dividends. Estimating the fair value of equity-settled awards as of the grant date using valuation models, such as the Black-Scholes option pricing model, is affected by assumptions regarding a number of complex variables. These inputs include: Expected term — The expected term represents the period that the stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding. Since the Company does not have a long trading history for its common stock, the expected term is estimated based on the average expected term for comparable publicly traded biopharmaceutical companies. The comparable companies were chosen based on their similar size, stage in the life cycle or area of specialty. For non-employees, the term is the remaining contractual term of the option. Expected volatility —Since the Company does not have a long trading history for its common stock, the expected volatility is estimated based on the average volatility for comparable publicly traded biopharmaceutical companies over a period equal to the expected term of the stock option grants. The comparable companies were chosen based on their similar size, stage in the life cycle or area of specialty. Risk-free interest rate —The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero coupon issues in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected term of option. Expected dividend —The Company has never paid dividends on its common stock and has no plans to pay dividends on its common stock. Therefore, the Company used an expected dividend yield of zero. Employee stock options valuation The fair value of employee and non-employee director stock option awards was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: Year Ended December 31, 2018 2017 2016 Expected term in years 6.08 5.83 6.08 Expected volatility 71.99% 68.40% 76.23% Risk-free interest rate 2.87% 2.27% 1.34% Dividend yield 0% 0% 0% Weighted average fair value of share-based awards granted $ 8.46 $ 4.79 $ 0.11 Stock options granted to non-employees Stock-based compensation related to stock options granted to non-employees is recognized as the stock options are earned. The fair value of the stock options granted to non-employees was calculated at each reporting date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: Year Ended December 31, 2018 2017 2016 Expected term in years 9.20 9.66 10.00 Expected volatility 73.87% 80.08% 79.62% Risk-free interest rate 2.66% 2.41% 1.57% Dividend yield 0% 0% 0% During the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, the Company granted 35,880, 569,252, and 46,148 shares, respectively, to non-employee consultants. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense for non-employee awards during the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 of $1.7 million, $ 0.7 million and $ 0.1 million, respectively. Accrued repurchase liability for common stock early exercises Stock awards granted pursuant to the 2016 Plan permitted option holders to elect to exercise unvested options in exchange for unvested common stock. Awards granted under the 2016 Plan that are exercised prior to vesting will continue to vest according to the respective award agreement, and such unvested shares are subject to repurchase by the Company at the optionee’s original exercise price or fair market value in the event the optionee’s service with the Company voluntarily or involuntarily terminates. As of December 31, 2018, and 2017, 896,034 and 1,219,389 shares, respectively, remained subject to a repurchase right by the Company, with a related liability included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the balance sheet of $386,000 and $316,000, respectively. Restricted stock In December 2017, the Company issued 390,546 shares of common stock for no consideration to the founders pursuant to the Series Seed Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement and license agreement in connection with certain anti-dilution rights held by these parties. If the shares issued under the license agreement represent less than 1% of the shares issued and outstanding common stock on an as-converted basis, the Company will issue additional common stock to the founders and Stanford University. The Company has the right to repurchase the common stock issued to the founders for these purposes at the fair value per share on the date of repurchase; this repurchase right lapses as the shares vest. The shares cliff vest 25% after one year and vest monthly thereafter over 36 months. As of December 31, 2018, and 2017, 268,504 and 390,546 shares remained subject to repurchase, respectively. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense upon the approval of these awards by the board of directors in September 2017 as vesting provisions are not considered substantive due to the fair value repurchase right. Stock-based compensation expense related to the restricted stock is recognized based on the fair value of the stock on the approval date using the Black-Scholes pricing model. During the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized expense related to these awards of zero, $0.2 million and zero, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense Total stock-based compensation expense related to all the Company’s stock-based awards was recorded on the statements of operations as follows (in thousands): Year Ended December 31, 2018 2017 2016 Research and development $ 1,325 $ 519 $ 103 General and administrative 1,201 629 4 Total stock-based compensation expense $ 2,526 $ 1,148 $ 107 Year Ended December 31, 2018 2017 2016 Stock option expense $ 2,404 $ 1,148 $ 107 Employee Stock Plan 122 — — Total stock-based compensation expense $ 2,526 $ 1,148 $ 107 As of December 31, 2018, there was $10.8 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock-based compensation arrangements under the 2016 and 2018 Plans. The unrecognized stock-based compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.3 years. |

Income taxes | 10. Income taxes No provision for income taxes was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016. The Company has incurred net operating losses since its inception. The Company has not reflected any benefit of such net operating loss carryforwards in the financial statements. The Company has established a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty surrounding the realization of such assets. In December 2017, the SEC staff issued SAB 118, which provides guidance for the tax effect of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, or the Tax Act. SAB 118 provides a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the Tax Act’s enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes, or ASC 740. In accordance with SAB 118, the Company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Tax Act for which the accounting under ASC 740 is complete. To the extent that the Company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete, but it is able to determine a reasonable estimate, the Company must record a provisional estimate in its financial statements. If the Company cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in its financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 on the basis of the provisions of the tax laws that were in effect immediately before the enactment of the Tax Act. The $1.6 million decrease in deferred tax assets and corresponding adjustment to the valuation allowance represent the Company’s reasonable estimates based on the corporate tax rate reduction to 21% from 35% for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017 and are provisional amounts within the meaning of SAB 118. Also, it is expected that the U.S. Treasury will issue regulations and other guidance on the application of certain provisions of the Tax Act. In subsequent periods, but within the measurement period, the Company will analyze that guidance and other necessary information to refine its estimates and complete its accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Act as necessary. The effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2018 2017 2016 Federal statutory income tax rate 21.0 % 34.0 % 34.0 % State taxes 0.0 % 0.0 % 0.0 % Federal rate change impact due to Tax Act 0.0 % -13.4 % 0.0 % Research and development credits 3.2 % 1.5 % 2.1 % Stock-based compensation -1.5 % -1.5 % 0.0 % Change in fair value of convertible note -1.6 % 0.2 % -2.1 % Other -1.3 % -0.7 % -1.3 % Change in valuation allowance -19.8 % -20.1 % -32.7 % 0.00 % 0.00 % 0.00 % Year Ended December 31, 2018 2017 Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carryforward $ 13,046 $ 3,596 Research and development credits 1,680 355 Stock-based compensation — 208 Other 37 32 Deferred tax assets before valuation allowance 14,763 4,191 Less: valuation allowance (14,566 ) (4,191 ) Net deferred income tax assets 197 — Deferred tax liabilities: Stock-based compensation (197 ) — Net deferred tax assets (liabilities) $ — $ — As of December 31, 2018, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $46.3 million and $47.4 million, respectively, available to reduce future taxable income, if any, for federal and California state income tax purposes. The net operating losses will begin to expire in 2037. As of December 31, 2018, the Company has federal research and development credit carryforwards of $0.5 million, which will expire beginning in 2037 if not utilized. As of December 31, 2018, the Company has California research and development credit carryforwards of $0.3 million. The California research and development credits have no expiration date. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had federal orphan drug credits of $1.5 million available to offset future taxable income. The Company has established a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty surrounding realization of such assets. The net increase in the valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 was $10.4 million and $3.2 million, respectively. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred income tax liabilities, and projected future taxable income in making this assessment. Based on these factors, management has provided a full valuation allowance for its deferred tax assets. Federal and state laws impose substantial restrictions on the utilization of net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards in the event of an ownership change for tax purchases, as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result of such ownership changes, the Company’s ability to realize the potential future benefit of tax losses and tax credits that existed at the time of the ownership change may be significantly reduced. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows (in thousands): Year Ended December 31, 2018 2017 2016 Balance at beginning of year $ 166 $ 31 $ — Additions based on tax positions related to current year 359 135 31 Balance at end of year $ 525 $ 166 $ 31 The Company’s unrecognized gross tax benefits would not reduce the annual effective tax rate if recognized because it has recorded a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets. The Company does not foresee any material changes to the gross unrecognized tax benefit within the next twelve months. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company files income tax returns in the United States and California. The Company currently has no federal or state tax examinations in progress. All years are open for examination by federal and state authorities. |

Stanford License Agreement | 12. Stanford license agreement In April 2016, the Company entered into a license agreement with the Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University, or Stanford University, relating to the Company’s drug discovery and development initiatives. Under this agreement, the Company has been granted certain worldwide exclusive licenses to use the licensed compounds. The Company paid an upfront license payment of $25,000 in April 2016, which was recorded as general and administrative expense and also issued 56,809 shares of common stock. The value of common share issuance was recorded, at fair value of $0.18 per share and included in the statement of operations as a general and administrative expense of $8,000 during the year ended December 31, 2016. In March 2017, the Company paid a license fee of $10,000, which was recorded as research and development expense during the year ended December 31, 2017. The Company may also be required to make future payments of up to approximately $1.0 million to Stanford University upon achievement of specific intellectual property, clinical and regulatory milestone events, as well as pay royalties in the low single digits on future net sales, if any. In addition, the Company is obligated to pay Stanford University a percentage of non-royalty revenue received by the Company from its sublicensees, with the amount owed decreasing annually for three years based on when the applicable sublicense agreement is executed. In March 2018, the Company recorded $50,000 under the Stanford agreement in connection with the achievement of a development milestone. |

The amounts include amounts incurred pursuant to the service agreement with BridgeBio Services, Inc., an affiliate of BridgeBio Pharma LLC (see Note 6). Rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the Company’s leases and accordingly, the Company recorded the difference between rent expense and amount paid under the leases as deferred rent liability within other liabilities in the balance sheets. Incentives granted under the Company’s facility lease, including allowances to fund leasehold improvements, are deferred and recognized as adjustments to rent expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Indemnification In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnifications of varying scope and terms to vendors, lessors, business partners, board members, officers, and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of breach of such agreements, services to be provided by the Company, negligence or willful misconduct of the Company, violations of law by the Company, or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with directors and certain officers and employees that will require the Company, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors, officers or employees. No demands have been made upon the Company to provide indemnification under such agreements, and thus, there are no claims that the Company is aware of that could have a material effect on the Company’s balance sheets, statements of operations, or statements of cash flows. Legal proceedings From time to time, the Company may be involved in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations and proceedings relating to securities laws, product liability, patent infringement, contract disputes and other matters relating to various claims that arise in the normal course of business in addition to governmental and other regulatory investigations and proceedings. In addition, third parties may, from time to time, assert claims against the Company in the form of letters and other communications. Management currently believes that these ordinary course matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business; however, the results of litigation and claims are inherently unpredictable. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors. |

Restatement of 2018 Condensed Interim Financial Statements and Related Financial Information (Unaudited) | 15. Restatement of 2018 condensed interim financial statements and related financial information (unaudited) Subsequent to the original issuance of the Company’s unaudited condensed financial statements and related financial information as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company determined that a restatement of its historical condensed quarterly financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2018 and for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was required. The restatements were required to correct misstatements related to the issuance and redemption of the Company’s February 2018 Convertible Promissory Notes (Note 5) and the accounting for the Company’s Series Seed Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock issuance and in subsequent closings (Notes 7 and 8). The restatement is required to properly account for the (i) fair value measurement, recognition and settlement of the embedded derivative liability associated with the Convertible Promissory Notes, (ii) initial recognition and reacquisition of the beneficial conversion feature associated with the Convertible Promissory Notes, (iii) associated gain on extinguishment and amortization of debt discount of the Convertible Promissory Notes, (iv) initial recognition, classification and settlement of redeemable convertible preferred stock put option asset, (v) fair value measurement of Series B Tranche Liability, and (vi) the measurement and timing of recognition of founders shares issued to settle the anti-dilution provision clause in the Series Seed Preferred Stock Agreement. Changes to the fair value measurement are primarily related to correction of the valuation assumptions for the Level 3 financial liabilities noted above. Accordingly, the Company has restated its financial statements for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2018 to correct the identified misstatements. The restated condensed quarterly financial statements correct the previous accounting as follows: The following schedules reconcile the amounts as originally reported in the unaudited condensed financial statements and related information to the corresponding restated amounts.

Summary of Significant Accoun_2
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2018 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Preparation | Basis of preparation These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. These financial statements include transactions with , a controlling stockholder in the Company. For the periods presented, BBP LLC has provided consulting and management services to the Company in the ordinary course of business, including certain executive personnel, facility related costs, advisory services, insurance costs, and other general corporate expenses. These allocations were made based on direct usage, when identifiable, with the remainder allocated primarily based on a proportional share of headcount. The Company’s historical financial statements do not purport to reflect what the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows would have been if the Company had operated as an independent entity during the periods presented. Management believes the basis on which the expenses have been allocated to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services provided to or the benefit received by the Company during the periods presented. For more information on the allocated costs and related party transactions, see Note 6. |
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 as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related the fair value of the redemption feature embedded derivative liability, the fair value of the redeemable convertible preferred stock tranche liability, the fair value of the redeemable convertible preferred stock warrant liability, the fair value of the Company’s common stock, stock-based compensation, the useful lives of fixed assets, accruals for research and development activities, and income taxes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on other relevant assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Concentrations of Credit Risk | Concentrations of credit risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. All the Company’s funds are held by one financial institution that management believes is of high credit quality. Such deposits may, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company’s cash equivalents are invested in highly-rated money market funds. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and cash equivalents All highly-liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less when purchased that are readily convertible into cash and have an insignificant interest rate risk are considered to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents at December 31, 2017. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $157.1 million. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair value of financial instruments The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments, including accounts payable and accrued expenses and other payables approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities. See Note 3 |
Property and Equipment, Net | Property and equipment, net Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the balance sheet and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations in the period realized. |
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | Impairment of long-lived assets The Company reviews long-lived assets, primarily comprised of property and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by comparison of the carrying amount to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows which the assets or asset groups are expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets or asset groups exceeds the estimated discounted future cash flows arising from the assets or asset groups. There have been no such impairments of long-lived assets for any of the periods presented. |
Research and Development Costs and Accrued Research and Development | Research and development costs and accrued research and development Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and consist of salaries and benefits, stock-based compensation expense, lab supplies and facility costs, as well as fees paid to others that conduct certain research and development activities on the Company’s behalf. The Company accrues for estimated costs of research and development activities conducted by third-party service providers, which include the conduct of preclinical studies and clinical trials, and contract manufacturing activities. The Company records the estimated costs of research and development activities based upon the estimated amount of services provided but not yet invoiced and includes these costs in accrued expenses and other payables in the balance sheets and within research and development expense in the statements of operations. These costs are a significant component of the Company’s research and development expenses. The Company accrues for these costs based on factors such as estimates of the work completed and in accordance with agreements established with its third-party service providers. The Company makes significant judgments and estimates in determining the accrued liabilities balance at each reporting date. As actual costs become known, the Company adjusts its accrued liabilities. The Company has not experienced any material differences between accrued costs and actual costs incurred. However, the status and timing of actual services performed, number of patients enrolled, and the rate of patient enrollments may vary from the Company’s estimates, resulting in adjustments to expense in future periods. Changes in these estimates that result in material changes to the Company’s accruals could materially affect the Company’s results of operations. |
Accrued Repurchase Liability for Common Stock | Accrued repurchase liability for common stock The Company records as a liability, within accrued expenses and other current liabilities, the purchase price of unvested common stock that the Company has a right to repurchase if and when the stockholder ceases to be a service provider to the Company before the end of the requisite service period. The proceeds are recorded as a liability and the proceeds related to the vested common stock is reclassified to additional paid-in capital as the Company’s repurchase right lapses. |
Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock Tranche Liability | Redeemable convertible preferred stock tranche liabilities The Company determined that its obligations to issue additional shares of preferred stock upon the achievement of certain milestones or at the option of the respective holders of such shares represent freestanding financial instruments. These instruments initially measured at fair value and are subject to remeasurement with changes in fair value recognized in other income (expense), net in the statements of operations. There were no such liabilities outstanding at December 31, 2018 or 2017, respectively. |
Embedded Derivative Liability and Deemed Dividend | Embedded derivative liability and deemed dividend The Company determined that the automatic conversion of the Convertible Promissory Notes payable issued in 2018 into new shares of preferred stock at 70% of the issuance price of such shares upon the closing of a qualified financing is an embedded derivative liability to be measured at fair value. As this instrument was issued to stockholders, the Company treated the initial recognition as a deemed dividend included in additional paid in capital at its fair value of $6.5 million. The embedded derivative liability was subject to remeasurement with changes in fair value recognized in other income (expense), net in the statements of operations. The embedded derivative liability balance was settled upon the conversion of the convertible promissory notes into Series B redeemable convertible preferred stock (Series B Preferred Stock) in March 2018. The deemed dividend impacted loss available to common stockholders and earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2018 . |
Gain on Extinguishment of Convertible Promissory Notes Payable | Gain on extinguishment of convertible promissory notes payable In March 2018, upon the conversion of the Convertible Promissory Notes into Series B Preferred Stock the Company recognized a gain on debt extinguishment. As the Convertible Promissory Notes were issued to stockholders, we treated the gain on debt extinguishment as a capital contribution included in additional paid in capital. The gain on extinguishment of convertible promissory notes payable impacted loss available to common stockholders and earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2018. |
Net Loss per Attributable to Common Stockholders and Net Loss per Share | Net Loss per Attributable to Common Stockholders and Net Loss per Share Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders taking into account the deemed dividend and gain on extinguishment of convertible promissory notes payable by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per common share is the same as basic net loss attributable to common stockholders per share since the effects of potentially dilutive securities are antidilutive given the Company’s loss position. |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-based compensation The Company periodically grants stock options and awards to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions as compensation for services rendered. The Company accounts for stock option grants to employees, whereby the fair value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized over the vesting period. The Company accounts for stock option grants to non-employees whereby the amount of stock compensation expense recognized is determined based upon the measurement date at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. The Company believes that the estimated fair value of stock options is more readily measurable than the fair value of the services rendered. The fair value of the Company's common stock option grants is estimated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the common stock options, and future dividends. Compensation expense is recognized based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes option pricing model and based on actual experience. The Company has elected to recognize the actual forfeitures by reducing the employee stock-based compensation expense in the same period as the forfeitures occur. The Company has in the past issued restricted shares of its common stock for share-based compensation programs. The Company measures compensation cost with respect to restricted shares issued to employees based upon the estimated fair value of the equity instruments at the date of the grant, with expenses recognized over the period which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award. |
Income Taxes | Income taxes The Company uses the asset and liability method to account for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and tax loss and credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates applied to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. To date, there have been no interest or penalties recorded for unrecognized tax benefits. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent accounting pronouncements In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842 The Company In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Stock-based Compensation: Improvements to Nonemployee Share-based Payment Accounting date of Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Entities will apply the ASU by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual period of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2018-07 will have on its financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement , which amends ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. This ASU modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements by removing, modifying, or adding certain disclosures. The effective date is the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, with early adoption permitted for the removed disclosures and delayed adoption until fiscal year 2020 permitted for the new disclosures. The removed and modified disclosures will be adopted on a retrospective basis and the new disclosures will be adopted on a prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2018-07 will have on its financial statements. |
