Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Company Overview | 1. Company Overview Description of Business Sunesis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Sunesis” or the “Company”) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel targeted inhibitors for the treatment of hematologic and solid cancers. The Company’s primary activities since incorporation have been conducting research and development internally and through corporate collaborators, in-licensing and out-licensing pharmaceutical compounds and technology, conducting clinical trials, and raising capital. The Company’s lead program is vecabrutinib, a selective non-covalent inhibitor of Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase (“BTK”) with activity against both wild-type and C481S-mutated BTK, the most common mutation associated with resistance to the covalent BTK inhibitor ibrutinib. The BTK C481S mutation is also seen with resistance to acalabrutinib, another covalent BTK inhibitor recently approved for treatment of mantle cell lymphoma (“MCL”). Ibrutinib was the first BTK inhibitor approved for treatment of MCL as well as for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (“CLL”) and other B-cell malignancies. Vecabrutinib is being studied in a Phase 1b/2 clinical trial to assess safety and activity in patients with CLL and other advanced B-cell malignancies after two or more prior therapies, including ibrutinib or another covalent BTK inhibitor where approved for the disease. The Phase 1b portion of the study will proceed to define a recommended Phase 2 dose and/or a maximum tolerated dose. In July 2019, the Company completed the safety evaluation period for the 200 mg cohort. The Company is developing SNS-510, a PDK1 inhibitor licensed from Takeda Oncology, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, or Takeda. The Company acquired from Takeda global commercial rights to several potential first-in class, preclinical inhibitors of the novel target PDK1, including SNS-510. The Company is currently characterizing SNS-510 through preclinical pharmacology studies, manufacturing, and formulation activities. The Company is also in a collaboration with Takeda for the development of TAK-580, an oral pan-RAF inhibitor, which is under investigation for pediatric low-grade glioma. Liquidity and Going Concern The Company has incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception, and as of June 30, 2019, the Company had cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and marketable securities totaling $17.7 million and an accumulated deficit of $671.6 million. The Company expects to continue to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future as it continues development of its kinase inhibitor pipeline, including its BTK inhibitor, vecabrutinib. The Company has prioritized development funding on its kinase inhibitor portfolio with a focus on vecabrutinib. The Company has a limited number of products that are still in the early stages of development and will require significant additional future investment. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and marketable securities are not sufficient to support its operations for a period of twelve months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements are available to be issued. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company will require additional financing to fund working capital, repay debt and pay its obligations as they come due. Additional financing might include one or more offerings and one or more of a combination of equity securities, debt arrangements or partnership or licensing collaborations. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in acquiring additional funding at levels sufficient to fund its operations or on terms favorable to the Company. If the Company is unsuccessful in its efforts to raise additional financing in the near term, the Company will be required to significantly reduce or cease operations. The principal payments due under the SVB Loan Agreement (as defined in Note 6) have been classified as a current liability as of June 30, 2019 due to the considerations discussed above and the assessment that the material adverse change clause under the SVB Loan Agreement is not within the Company's control. The SVB Loan Agreement also contains customary events of default, including among other things, the Company’s failure to make principal or interest payments when due, the occurrence of certain bankruptcy or insolvency events or its breach of the covenants under the SVB Loan Agreement. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, SVB (as defined in Note 6) may, among other things, accelerate the Company’s obligations under the SVB Loan Agreement. The Company has not been notified of an event of default by SVB as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts of liabilities that may result from uncertainty related to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern . Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk generally consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by the institutions holding its cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and any marketable securities to the extent of the amounts recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that management believes are necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2018 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. These interim financial results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year or any other period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes accompanying them should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments). This guidance addresses specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the diversity in practice for the treatment of these issues. The areas identified include: debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments; contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies; distributions received from equity method investees; beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and application of the predominance principle with respect to separately identifiable cash flows. The guidance will generally be applied retrospectively and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this ASU during the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on its condensed financial statements and related disclosures. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements The Company has elected the package of practical expedients permitted under ASC 842. Accordingly, the Company accounted for its existing operating leases as operating leases under the new guidance, without reassessing (a) whether the contracts contain a lease under ASC Topic 842, (b) whether classification of the operating leases would be different in accordance with ASC Topic 842, or (c) whether the unamortized initial direct costs before transition adjustments would have met the definition of initial direct costs in ASC Topic 842 at lease commencement. In addition, the Company made an accounting policy election to combine the lease and non-lease components and the short-term lease practical expedients allowed under ASC 842. As a result of the adoption of ASC 842, the Company recognized on January 1, 2019 (a) a lease liability of approximately $1,362,000, which represents the present value of the remaining lease payments of approximately $1,434,000, discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate of 4.0%, and (b) a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset equal to the lease liability of approximately $1,362,000. Once recorded, the Company also evaluates the right-of-use asset for impairment as part of an asset group, following the principles of ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment The adoption of the new standard resulted in changes to the Company’s accounting policies for leases as detailed below. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting In August 2018, the SEC adopted amendments to certain disclosure requirements in Securities Act Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification. The Company adopted the amendments during the quarter ended March 31, 2019, and as a result, disclosed in its condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity the quarterly activity of each caption of stockholders’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement . Leases The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. In determining whether an arrangement is a lease, the Company considers whether (1) explicitly or implicitly identified assets have been deployed in the arrangement and (2) the Company obtains substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of that underlying asset and directs how and for what purpose the asset is used during the term of the contract. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. When an implicit rate is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date for new leases or effective date for existing leases, in determining the present value of lease payments. Leases may contain initial periods of free rent and/or periodic escalations. When such items are included in a lease agreement, the Company records rent expense on a straight-line basis over the initial term of a lease. The difference between the rent payment and the straight-line rent expense is recorded as a deferred rent liability. The Company expenses any additional payments under its operating leases for taxes, insurance or other operating expenses as incurred . Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Sunesis Europe Limited, a United Kingdom corporation, and Sunesis Pharmaceuticals (Malta) Ltd., a Malta corporation. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Significant Estimates and Judgments The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Estimates, assumptions and judgments made by management include those related to the valuation of equity and related instruments, debt instruments, revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, ROU assets, lease liabilities, and clinical trial accounting. Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, and Marketable Securities The Company considers all highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents, which generally consist of money market funds and corporate debt securities. Restricted cash consists of amounts pledge as collateral for long-term financing agreements as contractually required by a lender. Marketable securities consist of securities with original maturities of greater than three months, which may include U.S. and European government obligations and corporate debt securities. Fair Value Measurements The Company measures cash equivalents at fair value on a recurring basis using the following hierarchy to prioritize valuation inputs, in accordance with applicable GAAP: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that can be accessed at the measurement date. Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 - unobservable inputs. The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, prepayments, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable approximated their fair value as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Loss per Common Share | 3. Loss per Common Share Basic loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing (a) net loss, by (b) the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period plus dilutive potential common shares as determined using the treasury stock method for options and warrants to purchase common stock. The following table represents the potential common shares issuable pursuant to outstanding securities as of the related period end dates that were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per common share because their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect (in thousands): Three and six months ended June 30, 2019 2018 Warrants to purchase shares of common stock 218 5,218 Convertible preferred stock 11,381 6,331 Options to purchase shares of common stock 4,952 3,548 Outstanding securities not included in calculations 16,551 15,097 |

License Agreements | 5. License Agreements Biogen In December 2013, the Company entered into a second amended and restated collaboration agreement with Biogen Inc. (the “Biogen 2nd ARCA”), to provide the Company with an exclusive worldwide license to develop, manufacture and commercialize vecabrutinib, a BTK inhibitor synthesized under an earlier collaboration with Biogen, solely for oncology indications. During the third quarter of 2017, the Company made the final milestone payment of $2.5 million to Biogen upon the dosing of the first patient in the Phase 1b/2 study to assess the safety and activity of vecabrutinib in patients with advanced B-cell malignancies. The payment was recorded in the research and development expenses line item in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company may also be required to make tiered royalty payments based on percentages of net sales of vecabrutinib, if any, in the mid-single-digits. Takeda In March 2011, Takeda Oncology, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited (“Takeda”) purchased exclusive rights to the PDK1 inhibitor and pan-Raf inhibitor programs which were both originally developed through the Company’s collaboration with Biogen. In January 2014, the Company entered into an amended and restated license agreement with Takeda (the “Amended Takeda Agreement”), to provide the Company with an exclusive worldwide license to develop and commercialize preclinical inhibitors of PDK1. In connection with the execution of the Amended Takeda Agreement, the Company paid an upfront fee and may be required to make up to $9.2 million in pre-commercialization milestone payments depending on its development of PDK1 inhibitors and tiered royalty payments based on percentages of net sales, if any, beginning in the mid-single-digits and not to exceed the low-teens. With respect to the pan-Raf inhibitor program, TAK-580 (formerly MLN2480), the Company may in the future receive up to $57.5 million in pre-commercialization event-based payments related to the development by Takeda of the first two indications for each of the licensed products directed against the Raf target and royalty payments depending on related product sales. TAK-580 is currently being studied in a Phase 1b/2 clinical study for children with low-grade gliomas. As of June 30, 2019, all future event-based payments and royalty payments are considered fully constrained variable considerations and therefore, no contract assets have been recorded and no revenue have been recognized. |

Notes Payable | 6. Notes Payable In April 2019, the Company entered into a term loan agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB Loan Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company borrowed $5.5 million. The Company used the proceeds of the SVB Loan Agreement plus cash on hand to repay its remaining obligations in the amount of $5.9 million under its existing loan agreement with Western Alliance Bank and Solar Capital Ltd The maturity date of the SVB Loan Agreement is December 1, 2022. Under the terms of the SVB Loan Agreement, the Company is required to make interest-only payments through December 31, 2020 on the borrowings at a floating rate equal to the greater of the Prime Rate as defined in the SVB Loan Agreement minus 2.25%, or 3.25%, followed by an amortization period of 24 months of equal monthly payments of principal plus interest amounts until paid in full. In addition to and not in substitution for the regular monthly payments of principal plus accrued interest, the Company is required to make a final payment equal to 4% of the original principal amount of the borrowings (“Final Payment Fee”). Additionally, the Company may prepay all, but not less than all, of the borrowings at any time upon 30 days’ prior notice to Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”). Any such prepayment would require, in addition to payment of principal and accrued interest as well as the Final Payment Fee, a prepayment fee, in the amount of (a) $165,000 if the prepayment occurs prior to the 1st anniversary of April 26, 2019, or the Effective Date; (b) $110,000 if the prepayment occurs on or after the 1st anniversary of the Effective Date but prior to the 2nd anniversary of the Effective Date; or (c) $55,000 if the prepayment occurs on or after the 2nd anniversary of the Effective Date. The Company’s obligations under the SVB Loan Agreement are secured by a first priority security interest in cash held at an account with SVB (the “Collateral Account”). The Company is obligated to maintain sufficient cash in the Collateral Account at all times in an amount equal to or greater than the outstanding balance of the borrowings. The Company has classified the Collateral Account as restricted cash on its condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2019. The SVB Loan Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants which, among other things, limit the Company’s ability to (i) incur additional indebtedness, (ii) pay dividends or make certain distributions, (iii) dispose of its assets, grant liens or encumber its assets or (iv) fundamentally alter the nature of its business. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications. The SVB Loan Agreement also contains customary events of default, including among other things, the Company’s failure to make any principal or interest payments when due, the occurrence of certain bankruptcy or insolvency events or its breach of the covenants under the SVB Loan Agreement. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, SVB may, among other things, accelerate the Company’s obligations under the SVB Loan Agreement . The Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants set forth in the SVB Loan Agreement as of June 30, 2019. The principal payments due under the SVB Loan Agreement have been classified as a current liability at June 30, 2019 due to the considerations discussed in Note 1 and the assessment that the material adverse change clause under the SVB Loan Agreement is not within the Company's control. The Company has not been notified of an event of default by the Lenders as of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q. Aggregate future minimum payments due under the SVB Loan Agreement as of June 30, 2019 were as follows (in thousands): Through December 31, Total 2019 $ 89 2020 179 2021 2,888 2022 3,018 Total minimum payments 6,174 Less amount representing interest (674 ) Total notes payable as of June 30, 2019 5,500 Less unamortized debt discount and issuance costs (44 ) Less carrying amount of notes payable (5,456 ) Non-current portion of notes payable $ — |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that management believes are necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2018 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. These interim financial results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year or any other period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes accompanying them should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. |
Adopted Accounting Pronouncements | Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments). This guidance addresses specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the diversity in practice for the treatment of these issues. The areas identified include: debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments; contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies; distributions received from equity method investees; beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and application of the predominance principle with respect to separately identifiable cash flows. The guidance will generally be applied retrospectively and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this ASU during the quarter ended March 31, 2019. The adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on its condensed financial statements and related disclosures. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements The Company has elected the package of practical expedients permitted under ASC 842. Accordingly, the Company accounted for its existing operating leases as operating leases under the new guidance, without reassessing (a) whether the contracts contain a lease under ASC Topic 842, (b) whether classification of the operating leases would be different in accordance with ASC Topic 842, or (c) whether the unamortized initial direct costs before transition adjustments would have met the definition of initial direct costs in ASC Topic 842 at lease commencement. In addition, the Company made an accounting policy election to combine the lease and non-lease components and the short-term lease practical expedients allowed under ASC 842. As a result of the adoption of ASC 842, the Company recognized on January 1, 2019 (a) a lease liability of approximately $1,362,000, which represents the present value of the remaining lease payments of approximately $1,434,000, discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate of 4.0%, and (b) a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset equal to the lease liability of approximately $1,362,000. Once recorded, the Company also evaluates the right-of-use asset for impairment as part of an asset group, following the principles of ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment The adoption of the new standard resulted in changes to the Company’s accounting policies for leases as detailed below. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting In August 2018, the SEC adopted amendments to certain disclosure requirements in Securities Act Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification. The Company adopted the amendments during the quarter ended March 31, 2019, and as a result, disclosed in its condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity the quarterly activity of each caption of stockholders’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement . |
Leases | Leases The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. In determining whether an arrangement is a lease, the Company considers whether (1) explicitly or implicitly identified assets have been deployed in the arrangement and (2) the Company obtains substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of that underlying asset and directs how and for what purpose the asset is used during the term of the contract. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. When an implicit rate is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date for new leases or effective date for existing leases, in determining the present value of lease payments. Leases may contain initial periods of free rent and/or periodic escalations. When such items are included in a lease agreement, the Company records rent expense on a straight-line basis over the initial term of a lease. The difference between the rent payment and the straight-line rent expense is recorded as a deferred rent liability. The Company expenses any additional payments under its operating leases for taxes, insurance or other operating expenses as incurred . |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Sunesis Europe Limited, a United Kingdom corporation, and Sunesis Pharmaceuticals (Malta) Ltd., a Malta corporation. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Significant Estimates and Judgments | Significant Estimates and Judgments The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Estimates, assumptions and judgments made by management include those related to the valuation of equity and related instruments, debt instruments, revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, ROU assets, lease liabilities, and clinical trial accounting. |
Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, and Marketable Securities | Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, and Marketable Securities The Company considers all highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents, which generally consist of money market funds and corporate debt securities. Restricted cash consists of amounts pledge as collateral for long-term financing agreements as contractually required by a lender. Marketable securities consist of securities with original maturities of greater than three months, which may include U.S. and European government obligations and corporate debt securities. |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The Company measures cash equivalents at fair value on a recurring basis using the following hierarchy to prioritize valuation inputs, in accordance with applicable GAAP: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that can be accessed at the measurement date. Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 - unobservable inputs. The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, prepayments, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable approximated their fair value as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. |
