Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Overview and Nature of the Business | 1. Overview and Nature of the Business Flexion Therapeutics, Inc. (“Flexion” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on November 5, 2007. Flexion is a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of novel, local pain therapies for the treatment of patients with musculoskeletal conditions, beginning with osteoarthritis (“OA”), a type of degenerative arthritis. The Company’s lead product candidate, Zilretta (also known as FX006), is a late-stage, injectable, sustained-release, intra-articular, or IA, meaning “in the joint,” steroid that is being developed as a treatment for patients with moderate to severe OA pain. The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties common to companies in the biopharmaceutical industry, including, but not limited to, new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations, and ability to secure additional capital to fund operations. Product candidates currently under development will require significant additional research and development efforts, including extensive preclinical and clinical testing and regulatory approval prior to commercialization. These efforts require significant amounts of additional capital, adequate personnel infrastructure and extensive compliance reporting capabilities. The Company’s product candidates are all in the development stage. There can be no assurance that development efforts, including clinical trials, will be successful. Even if the Company’s product development efforts are successful, it is uncertain when, if ever, the Company will realize significant revenue from product sales. |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2016, and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (‘GAAP”) for consolidated financial information including the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary after elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position and results of its operations, as of and for the periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 11, 2016. The information presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes as of March 31, 2016, and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, is unaudited. The December 31, 2015 consolidated balance sheet included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures, including notes, required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Interim results for the three months ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016, or any future period. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis which assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and long-term investments of $101,365,000 and $118,604,000, respectively. Management believes that current cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities on hand at March 31, 2016 should be sufficient to fund operations for at least the next twelve months. The future viability of the Company is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital to finance its operations and to fund increased research and development costs in order to seek approval for commercialization of its product candidates. The Company’s failure to raise capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on its financial condition and its ability to pursue its business strategies as this capital is necessary for the Company to perform the research and development activities required to develop the Company’s product candidates and to establish a commercial infrastructure in order to generate future revenue streams. In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-17, Income Taxes In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases On March 30, 2016, the FASB released ASU 2016-09, which amends ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, to require changes to several areas of employee share-based payment accounting in an effort to simplify share-based reporting. The update revises requirements in the following areas: minimum statutory withholding, accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and intrinsic value accounting for private entities. For public companies, the new rules will become effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim reporting periods within such annual period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance may have on the Company’s financial statements. Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Flexion Securities Corporation, Inc. The Company has eliminated all intercompany transactions for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015, the year Flexion Securities Corporation, Inc. was established. U.S. Government Grant The Company has performed research and development for the U.S. Department of Defense under a cost reimbursable grant for a Phase 2 clinical trial investigating Zilretta in active military and medically retired veterans with post-traumatic knee OA. Due to the challenges of enrolling military personnel with post-traumatic knee OA, the Company has decided to discontinue the trial and terminate the grant. The related costs incurred under the grant have been included in research and development expense in the statement of operations. The Company is reimbursed and has offset research and development expenses in the statement of operations when invoices for allowable costs have been prepared and submitted to the U.S. Department of Defense. Payments under cost reimbursable grants with agencies of the U.S. government are provisional payments subject to adjustment upon audit by the U.S. government. When the final determination of the allowable costs for any year has been made, research and development expenses may be adjusted accordingly. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable represents allowable costs under the Company’s U.S. Government agency grant for which the Company has not yet received reimbursement. The Company invoices the government on a quarterly basis for reimbursable costs under the grant. Reimbursable costs that have not been invoiced on the last day of the quarter are recorded as unbilled accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were unbilled accounts receivable of $56,000 and $95,000, respectively. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, expenses and related disclosures. The Company bases estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The most significant estimates in these condensed consolidated financial statements include useful lives with respect to long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and leasehold improvements, accounting for stock-based compensation, and accrued expenses, including clinical research costs. The Company’s actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis. Changes in estimates are reflected in reported results in the period in which they become known by the Company’s management. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation and amortization expense is recognized using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Estimated Useful Life (Years) Computers and office equipment 3 Computer software 7 Manufacturing equipment 7 Furniture and fixtures 5 Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the related asset. Costs of major additions and improvements are capitalized and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Upon retirement or sale, the cost of assets disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to income. Property and equipment includes construction-in-progress, which is not yet in service, and is estimated to have a useful life of seven years once placed into service. |

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities | 3. Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities The following tables present information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and indicate the level of the fair value hierarchy utilized to determine such fair value: Fair Value Measurements as of March 31, 2016 Using: (In thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Cash equivalents $ — $ 57,182 $ — $ 57,182 Marketable securities — 42,462 — 42,462 $ — $ 99,644 $ — $ 99,644 Fair Value Measurements as of December 31, 2015 Using: (In thousands) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Cash equivalents $ — $ 61,534 $ — $ 61,534 Marketable securities — 55,660 — 55,660 $ — $ 117,194 $ — $ 117,194 As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company’s cash equivalents and marketable securities that are invested in money market funds are valued based on Level 2 inputs. The Company measures the fair value of marketable securities using Level 2 inputs and primarily relies on quoted prices in active markets for similar marketable securities. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and year ended December 31, 2015, there were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3. The carrying values of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these balances. The 2015 term loan with MidCap Financial Funding XIII Trust and Silicon Valley Bank (“2015 term loan”), outstanding under the Company’s credit and security agreements, is reported at its carrying value in the accompanying balance sheet. The Company determined the fair value of the term loan using an income approach that utilizes a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market interest rates for debt issuances with similar remaining years to maturity, adjusted for credit risk. The term loan was valued using Level 2 inputs as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The result of the calculation yielded a fair value that approximates carrying value. |

Stock-Based Compensation | 7. Stock-Based Compensation Stock Option Valuation The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Therefore, the Company estimates its expected stock volatility based on the historical volatility of its publicly-traded peer companies and expects to continue to do so until such time as it has adequate historical data regarding the volatility of its own traded stock price. The expected term of the Company’s stock options has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method for awards that qualify as “plain vanilla” options. The expected term of stock options granted to non-employees is equal to the contractual term of the option award. The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. Expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and does not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The relevant data used to determine the value of the stock option grants for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 are as follows: Three months ended March 31, 2016 2015 Risk-free interest rates 1.39-1.90 % 1.51-1.83 % Expected dividend yield 0.00 % 0.00 % Expected term (in years) 6.1 6.0 Expected volatility 83.8-84.1 % 78.4-81.4 % The following table summarizes stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2016: (In thousands, except per share amounts and years) Shares Issuable Under Options Weighted Average Exercise Price Outstanding as of December 31, 2015 1,657 $ 14.28 Granted 533 17.92 Exercised — — Canceled (14 ) 16.46 Outstanding as of March 31, 2016 2,176 $ 15.16 Options vested and expected to vest at March 31, 2016 1,837 $ 14.53 Options exercisable at March 31, 2016 899 $ 10.79 In addition to the 533,000 common stock options, approximately 189,000 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) were granted during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The RSUs are performance based awards which will begin vesting upon the achievement of a corporate performance based milestone. No outstanding performance awards were vested as of March 31, 2016. The aggregate intrinsic value of options is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the options and the fair value of the Company’s common stock for those options that had exercise prices lower than the fair value of the Company’s common stock. No options were exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2016. At March 31, 2016 and 2015, there were options for the purchase of 2,176,000 and 1,637,000 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding, respectively, with a weighted average remaining contractual term of 8.2, and 8.4 years, respectively, and with a weighted average exercise price of $15.16 and $13.41 per share, respectively. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 was $12.82 and $23.27, respectively. Stock-based Compensation The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense related to stock options for the three months ended March 31, 2016 is as follows: Three months ended March 31, (In thousands) 2016 2015 Research and development $ 537 $ 322 General and administrative 1,104 686 $ 1,641 $ 1,008 As of March 31, 2016 unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for stock options outstanding was $10,838,000, which was expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.9 years. As of March 31, 2015, unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for stock options outstanding was $12,643,000, which was expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.2 years. Restricted Stock Units On January 4, 2016, the Company granted restricted common stock units with performance and time-based vesting conditions to certain executives. The restricted stock units vest, and the underlying shares of common stock become deliverable, in the event the Company receives approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) of a new drug application (“NDA”) for Zilretta (the “ Milestone ” |

These options were excluded from the computations because the options had an anti-dilutive impact due to the net loss incurred for those periods. |

Debt Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Long-term Debt | 9. Long-term Debt On August 4, 2015, the Company entered into a credit and security agreement with MidCap Financial Trust, as agent, MidCap Financial Funding XIII Trust and Silicon Valley Bank, as lenders, (the “Lenders”), to borrow up to $30,000,000 in term loans, (“2015 term loan”). The Company concurrently borrowed $15,000,000 under an initial term loan. The remaining $15,000,000 under the facility may be drawn down in the form of a second term loan at the Company’s option through September 2016, subject to the Company’s receipt of positive Phase 3 Zilretta clinical trial data meeting the trial’s primary endpoint which is sufficient to file an NDA for Zilretta, as well as other customary conditions for funding. The Company granted the Lenders a security interest in substantially all of its personal property, rights and assets, other than intellectual property, to secure the payment of all amounts owed under the credit facility. The Company also agreed not to encumber any of its intellectual property without the Lenders’ prior written consent. The Company must maintain a balance in cash or cash equivalents at Silicon Valley Bank equal to the principal balance of the loan plus 5 percent for so long as the Company maintains any cash or cash equivalents in non-secured bank accounts. The credit and security agreement also contains certain representations, warranties, and covenants of the Company as well as a material adverse event clause. As of March 31, 2016, the Company was compliant with all covenants and there were no material adverse events. Borrowings under the credit facility accrue interest monthly at a fixed interest rate of 6.25 % per annum. Following an interest-only period of 19 months, principal will be due in 36 equal monthly installments commencing March 1, 2017 and ending February 1, 2020 (the “maturity date”). Upon the maturity date, the Company will be obligated to pay a final payment equal to 9% of the total principal amounts borrowed under the facility. The final payment amount is being accreted to the carrying value of the debt using the effective interest rate method. As of March 31, 2016, the carrying value of the term loan was $15,072,000, of which $384,000 was due within 12 months and $14,688,000 was due in greater than 12 months. In connection with the credit and security agreement, the Company incurred debt issuance costs totaling $150,000. These costs will be amortized over the estimated term of the debt using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method. The Company elected the early adoption of ASU 2015-03, Interest – Imputation of Interest As of March 31, 2016, annual principal and interest payments due under the Company’s 2015 term loan are as follows (in thousands): Year Aggregate Minimum Payments 2016 (remaining nine months) $ 716 2017 5,018 2018 5,541 2019 5,224 2020 2,190 Total $ 18,689 Less interest (2,267 ) Less final payment (1,350 ) Total $ 15,072 |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2016, and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (‘GAAP”) for consolidated financial information including the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary after elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position and results of its operations, as of and for the periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 11, 2016. The information presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes as of March 31, 2016, and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, is unaudited. The December 31, 2015 consolidated balance sheet included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures, including notes, required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Interim results for the three months ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016, or any future period. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis which assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and long-term investments of $101,365,000 and $118,604,000, respectively. Management believes that current cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities on hand at March 31, 2016 should be sufficient to fund operations for at least the next twelve months. The future viability of the Company is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital to finance its operations and to fund increased research and development costs in order to seek approval for commercialization of its product candidates. The Company’s failure to raise capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on its financial condition and its ability to pursue its business strategies as this capital is necessary for the Company to perform the research and development activities required to develop the Company’s product candidates and to establish a commercial infrastructure in order to generate future revenue streams. In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-17, Income Taxes In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases On March 30, 2016, the FASB released ASU 2016-09, which amends ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, to require changes to several areas of employee share-based payment accounting in an effort to simplify share-based reporting. The update revises requirements in the following areas: minimum statutory withholding, accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and intrinsic value accounting for private entities. For public companies, the new rules will become effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim reporting periods within such annual period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance may have on the Company’s financial statements. |
Consolidation | Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Flexion Securities Corporation, Inc. The Company has eliminated all intercompany transactions for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015, the year Flexion Securities Corporation, Inc. was established. |
U.S. Government Grant | U.S. Government Grant The Company has performed research and development for the U.S. Department of Defense under a cost reimbursable grant for a Phase 2 clinical trial investigating Zilretta in active military and medically retired veterans with post-traumatic knee OA. Due to the challenges of enrolling military personnel with post-traumatic knee OA, the Company has decided to discontinue the trial and terminate the grant. The related costs incurred under the grant have been included in research and development expense in the statement of operations. The Company is reimbursed and has offset research and development expenses in the statement of operations when invoices for allowable costs have been prepared and submitted to the U.S. Department of Defense. Payments under cost reimbursable grants with agencies of the U.S. government are provisional payments subject to adjustment upon audit by the U.S. government. When the final determination of the allowable costs for any year has been made, research and development expenses may be adjusted accordingly. |
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable represents allowable costs under the Company’s U.S. Government agency grant for which the Company has not yet received reimbursement. The Company invoices the government on a quarterly basis for reimbursable costs under the grant. Reimbursable costs that have not been invoiced on the last day of the quarter are recorded as unbilled accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were unbilled accounts receivable of $56,000 and $95,000, respectively. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, expenses and related disclosures. The Company bases estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The most significant estimates in these condensed consolidated financial statements include useful lives with respect to long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and leasehold improvements, accounting for stock-based compensation, and accrued expenses, including clinical research costs. The Company’s actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis. Changes in estimates are reflected in reported results in the period in which they become known by the Company’s management. |
Property and Equipment | Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation and amortization expense is recognized using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Estimated Useful Life (Years) Computers and office equipment 3 Computer software 7 Manufacturing equipment 7 Furniture and fixtures 5 Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the related asset. Costs of major additions and improvements are capitalized and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Upon retirement or sale, the cost of assets disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to income. Property and equipment includes construction-in-progress, which is not yet in service, and is estimated to have a useful life of seven years once placed into service. |
