Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Description of Business Mateon Therapeutics, Inc. (“Mateon” or the “Company”) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing drugs for the treatment of orphan oncology indications, with its lead program in acute myeloid leukemia (“AML”). The Company was originally incorporated under the name OXiGENE, Inc. in 1988 in the state of New York and reincorporated in 1992 in the state of Delaware. The Company changed its name to Mateon Therapeutics, Inc. on June 17, 2016. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q Regulation S-X. The balance sheet at December 31, 2016 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash Equivalents Highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are stated at fair value. Short-term Investments All marketable securities have been classified as “available for sale” and are carried at fair value, based upon quoted market prices. The Company considers its available-for-sale available-for-sale Going Concern Evaluation The Company has experienced net losses every year since inception and, as of September 30, 2017, had an accumulated deficit of approximately $290 million. The Company has no source of revenue and does not expect to receive any product revenue in the near future. If the Company remains in business, the Company expects to incur additional operating losses over the next several years, principally as a result of the Company’s continuing development of its investigational drugs. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had approximately $1.9 million in cash and cash equivalents. Based on the Company’s planned operations, including recent reductions in the Company’s development programs and personnel and assuming the receipt of an anticipated cash refund from one of the Company’s vendors, Management expects Mateon’s existing cash to support operations into February 2018. Prior to this time, the Company will need to secure additional funding or it would be forced to terminate or further curtail operations. Because the Company does not currently have a guaranteed source of capital that will sustain operations past February 2018, Management has determined that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The principal source of the Company’s working capital to date has been the proceeds from the sale of equity. If the Company is unable to access additional funds in the near term, whether through the sale of additional equity or another means, the Company may not be able to continue in business. The Company also may not be able to continue the development of its investigational drugs, and Mateon could be required to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of its development programs and operations. Any additional equity financing, if available to the Company, may not be available on favorable terms and would most likely be dilutive to current stockholders. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants and also be dilutive to current stockholders. If the Company accesses funds through collaborative or licensing arrangements, it may be required to relinquish rights to some of its technologies or product candidates on terms that are not favorable to the Company. The Company’s ability to access capital when needed is not assured. If access to capital is not achieved in the near term, it will materially harm the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | 3. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price at which an asset could be exchanged or a liability transferred in a transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or parameters are not available, valuation models are applied. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities, are as follows: Level 1—Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets at the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide reasonably accurate pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2—Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the reporting date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life. The Company utilizes third party pricing services in developing fair value measurements where fair value is based on observable market inputs, including benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, bids, offers and other reference data. The Company uses quotes from external pricing service providers and other on-line 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 reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the reporting date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model. Financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized in the table below based upon the lowest level of significant input to the valuations (in thousands): September 30, 2017 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Money market funds $ 1,706 $ — $ — $ 1,706 December 31, 2016 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Money market funds $ 2,864 $ — $ — $ 2,864 U.S. government treasury bills — 3,008 — 3,008 Corporate bonds and commercial paper — 5,504 — 5,504 $ 2,864 $ 8,512 $ — $ 11,376 |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Net Loss Per Share | 5. Net Loss Per Share Basic and diluted net loss per share was calculated by dividing the net loss per share attributed to the Company’s common shares by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share includes the effect of all dilutive, potentially issuable common equivalent shares as defined using the treasury stock method. All of the Company’s common stock equivalents are anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net loss position for all periods presented. Accordingly, common stock equivalents of approximately 5,565,000 stock options and 9,626,000 warrants outstanding at September 30, 2017 and 4,049,000 stock options and 9,842,000 warrants outstanding at September 30, 2016, were excluded from the calculation of weighted average shares for diluted net loss per share. |

The Company provided severance payments to the employees whose employment was terminated in return for each employees’ release of any potential claims against the Company. Also, effective October 2, 2017, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Scientific Officer each agreed to a 50% reduction of their base salary, with reinstatement of their base salaries to previous levels contingent on the Company raising additional funding of at least $4 million or a change in control of the Company. |
