Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Nature of Operations | 1. Nature of Operations Sage Therapeutics, Inc. (“Sage” or the “Company”) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company committed to developing and commercializing novel medicines to treat life-altering central nervous system (“CNS”) disorders, where there are inadequate or no approved existing therapies. The Company is targeting CNS indications where patient populations are easily identified, clinical endpoints are well-defined, and development pathways are feasible. This focus allows the Company to make highly informed decisions when advancing its product candidates through the development process. The Company was incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on April 16, 2010 and commenced operations on January 19, 2011 as Sterogen Biopharma, Inc. On September 13, 2011, the Company changed its name to Sage Therapeutics, Inc. under its Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties common to companies in the biotech industry, including, but not limited to, the risks associated with developing product candidates at each stage of nonclinical and clinical development; the challenges associated with gaining regulatory approval of such product candidates; the potential for development by third parties of new technological innovations that may compete with the Company’s products; the dependence on key personnel; the challenges of protecting proprietary technology; the need to comply with government regulations; the high costs of drug development; and the uncertainty of being able to secure additional capital when needed to fund operations. The Company has incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception. As of September 30, 2015, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $132.8 million. From its inception through September 30, 2015, the Company has raised aggregate net proceeds of $90.6 million from the issuance of Series A, Series B and Series C redeemable convertible preferred stock. In July 2014, the Company raised net proceeds of $94.0 million from the sale of common stock in its initial public offering, (“IPO”). In April 2015, the Company raised net proceeds of $129.1 million from the sale of common stock in a follow-on underwritten public offering. Based on its current operating plans, the Company believes its cash and cash equivalents balance of $204.9 million as of September 30, 2015 will be sufficient to fund its anticipated level of operations through mid-2017. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted from this report, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments which are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2015, the results of its operations and comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. Such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2015, or for any future period. On July 23, 2014, the Company completed the sale of 5,750,000 shares of its common stock in its IPO at a price to the public of $18.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $94.0 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering costs paid by the Company. The shares began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market on July 18, 2014. In connection with preparing for the IPO, the Company’s board of directors and stockholders approved a 1-for-3.15 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock effective July 2, 2014. All share and per share amounts in the unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein and notes thereto have been retroactively adjusted, where necessary, to give effect to this reverse stock split. In connection with the closing of the IPO, all of the Company’s outstanding redeemable convertible preferred stock automatically converted into shares of common stock as of July 23, 2014, resulting in the issuance by the Company of an additional 18,007,575 shares of common stock. The significant increase in common stock outstanding in July 2014 will impact the year-over-year comparability of the Company’s net loss per share calculations through the end of 2015. On April 20, 2015, the Company completed the sale of 2,628,571 shares of common stock in its underwritten public offering of its common stock at a price to the public of $52.50 per share, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $129.1 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering costs paid by the Company. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries as disclosed in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, within the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” accompanying its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, as amended. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance that outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry specific guidance. The guidance is based on the principle that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to fulfill a contract. Entities have the option of using either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach for the adoption of the new standard. The guidance becomes effective for the Company in the year ending December 31, 2018, and the Company could early adopt the standard for the year ending December 31, 2017. The Company is currently assessing the method of adoption and the impact of this new accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements — Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40). The new guidance addresses management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Management’s evaluation should be based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably knowable at the date that the financial statements are issued. The standard will be effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories: Level 1 - Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company’s Level 1 assets consisted of money market funds totaling $204.9 million and $127.8 million, respectively. 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. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had no Level 2 assets or liabilities. 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. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had no Level 3 assets or liabilities. The Company’s financial instruments generally consist of cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying amounts for the applicable financial instruments reported in the balance sheets approximate their fair values at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Deferred Offering Costs The Company capitalizes certain legal, accounting and other third-party fees that are directly associated with in-process equity financings as other assets until such financings are consummated. After consummation of the IPO in July 2014, $2.3 million of these costs were recorded in stockholders’ equity as a reduction of additional paid-in capital generated as a result of the IPO. After consummation of the public offering of common stock in April 2015, $0.6 million of these costs were recorded in stockholders’ equity as a reduction of additional paid-in capital generated as a result of the offering. Segment Data The Company manages its operations as a single segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. The Company’s singular focus is on advancing medicines to treat CNS, where there are inadequate or no approved existing therapies. All tangible assets are held within the United States. |

Under the terms of the commercial license agreement as amended and restated, CyDex has granted to the Company an exclusive license to CyDex’s Captisol drug formulation technology and related intellectual property for the manufacture of pharmaceutical products incorporating the Company’s compounds known as SAGE-547 and SAGE-689, and the development and commercialization of the resulting products in the treatment, prevention or diagnosis of any disease or symptom in humans or animals other than (i) the ocular treatment of any disease or condition with a formulation, including a hormone; (ii) topical ocular treatment of inflammatory conditions; (iii) treatment and prophylaxis of fungal infections in humans; and (iv) any ocular treatment for retinal degeneration. As consideration for the inclusion of SAGE-689 in the license granted by CyDex, the Company paid a milestone to CyDex of $0.1 million, which was recorded as research and development expense in the three months ended September 30, 2015 in connection with execution of the amended and restated license agreement. The Company is obligated to make milestone payments under the amended and restated license agreement with CyDex based on the achievement of clinical development and regulatory milestones in the amount of $0.8 million in clinical milestones and $3.8 million in regulatory milestones for each of the first two fields with respect to SAGE-547; $1.3 million in clinical milestones and $8.5 million in regulatory milestones for each of the third and fourth fields with respect to SAGE-547; and $0.8 million in clinical milestones and $1.8 million in regulatory milestones for one field with respect to SAGE-689. In March 2015, a clinical development milestone was met for the SAGE-547 program under the license agreement with CyDex, and accordingly, the Company recorded research and development expense for the three months ended March 31, 2015 of $0.3 million.

The Company and CyDex are also parties to a supply agreement which was amended in September 2015 to cover the supply of CyDex’s Captisol for use in the manufacture of products incorporating SAGE-689. Under the amended supply agreement with CyDex, the Company is required to purchase all of its requirements for Captisol with respect to SAGE-547 and SAGE-689 from CyDex, and CyDex is required to supply the Company with Captisol for such purposes, subject to certain limitations. Washington University License Agreement In November 2013, the Company entered into a license agreement with Washington University whereby the Company was granted exclusive, worldwide rights to develop and commercialize a novel set of neuroactive steroids developed by Washington University. In exchange for development and commercialization rights, the Company paid an upfront, non-refundable payment of $50,000 and is required to pay an annual license maintenance fee of $15,000 on each subsequent anniversary date, until the first Phase 2 clinical trial for a licensed product is initiated. The Company is obligated to make milestone payments to Washington University based on achievement of clinical development and regulatory milestones of up to $0.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Additionally, the Company fulfilled its obligation to issue to Washington University 47,619 shares of common stock on December 13, 2013. The fair value of these shares totaling $0.1 million was recorded as research and development expense in 2013. The Company is obligated to pay royalties to Washington University at rates in the low single digits on net sales of licensed products covered under patent rights and royalties at rates in the low single digits on net sales of licensed products not covered under patent rights.

University of California License Agreements In October 2013, the Company entered into a non-exclusive license agreement with The Regents of the University of California whereby the Company was granted a non-exclusive license to certain clinical data and clinical material for use in the development and commercialization of biopharmaceutical products in the licensed field, including status epilepticus and post-partum depression. In May 2014, the license agreement was amended to add the treatment of essential tremor to the licensed field of use, materials and milestone fee provisions of the agreement. The Company will be required to pay to The Regents of the University of California clinical development milestones of up to $0.1 million and pay royalties of less than 1% on net sales for a period of fifteen years following the sale of the first commercial product. The license will terminate on the earlier to occur of (i) 27 years after the effective date or (ii) 15 years after the last-derived product is first commercially sold.

In June 2015, an additional clinical development milestone was met. Accordingly, the Company recorded research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2015 totaling $25,000. In September 2015, an additional clinical development milestone was met. Accordingly, the Company recorded research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2015 totaling $25,000. In June 2015, the Company entered into an exclusive license agreement with The Regents of the University of California whereby the Company was granted an exclusive license to certain patent rights related to the use of allopregnanolone to treat various diseases. In exchange for such license, the Company paid an upfront payment of $50,000 and will make annual maintenance fees of $15,000 until the calendar year following the first sale, if any, of a licensed product. The Company is obligated to make milestone payments following the achievement of specified regulatory and sales milestones of up to $0.7 million and $2.0 million in the aggregate, respectively. Following the first sale, if any, of a licensed product, the Company is obligated to pay royalties at a low single digit percentage of net sales, if any, of licensed products, subject to specified minimum annual royalty amounts. Unless terminated by operation of law or by acts of the parties under the terms of the agreement, the license agreement will terminate when the last-to-expire patents or last-to-be abandoned patent applications expire, whichever is later. Consulting Agreement In January 2014, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with a nonemployee advisor whereby the Company is obligated to make cash payments of up to $2.0 million and to issue up to 126,984 shares of common stock upon attainment of certain clinical development and regulatory milestones.

Stock-Based Compensation | 5. Stock-Based Compensation 2014 Stock Option Plan On July 2, 2014, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2014 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “2014 Stock Option Plan”), which became effective upon the completion of the IPO. The 2014 Stock Option Plan provides for the grant of restricted stock awards, incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, among others. The 2014 Stock Option Plan replaced the Company’s 2011 Stock Option and Grant Plan (the “2011 Stock Option Plan”). The Company will grant no further stock options or other awards under the 2011 Stock Option Plan. Any options or awards outstanding under the 2011 Stock Option Plan remained outstanding and effective. As of September 30, 2015, the total number of shares reserved under the 2014 Stock Option Plan and the 2011 Stock Option Plan was 3,868,298 and the Company had 997,486 shares available for future issuance under the 2014 Stock Option Plan. The 2014 Stock Option Plan provides for an annual increase, to be added on the first day of each fiscal year, by up to 4% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock on the immediately preceding December 31. On January 1, 2015, 773,779 shares of common stock, representing 3% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of December 31, 2014, were added to the 2014 Stock Option Plan. Such shares are included in the equity plan totals specified in the paragraph above. 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan On July 2, 2014, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. A total of 282,000 shares of common stock were initially authorized for issuance under this plan. The 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan became effective upon the completion of the IPO. As of September 30, 2015, 3,852 shares of common stock have been issued under this plan. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, issuances of common stock under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan resulted in proceeds to the Company of $0.1 million. Stock-Based Compensation Terms of restricted stock awards and stock option agreements, including vesting requirements, are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors or the Board of Directors, subject to the provisions of the applicable stock option plan. Options and restricted stock awards granted by the Company generally vest based on the continued service of the grantee with the Company during a specified period following the grant. Awards generally vest ratably over four years, with a 25% cliff vesting at the one year anniversary. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company granted 497,100 options to employees to purchase shares of common stock that contain performance-based vesting criteria, primarily related to achievement of certain clinical and regulatory development milestones related to the Company’s product candidates. Recognition of stock-based compensation expense associated with these performance-based stock options commences when the performance condition is considered probable of achievement, using management’s best estimates. During the quarter ended June 30, 2015, the achievement of one milestone was considered probable and that milestone was achieved during the quarter ended September 30, 2015. The related expense was recognized over the estimated service period. This milestone represents 35% of the performance-based grants that were made during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The achievement of the remaining milestones was deemed to be not probable as of September 30, 2015 and therefore no expense has been recognized related to these awards. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $1.4 million and $4.8 million, respectively, related to stock options with performance-based vesting criteria. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recognized no stock-based compensation expense related to stock options with performance-based vesting criteria. All awards are exercisable from the date of grant for a period of ten years. The stock-based compensation expense recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was as follows (amounts in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Stock compensation expense: Research and development $ 1,472 $ 294 $ 4,293 $ 553 General and administrative 2,935 396 6,861 633 $ 4,407 $ 690 $ 11,154 $ 1,186 For stock option awards, the fair value of the options is estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which options are granted. The fair value of the options is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. The weighted average grant date exercise price per share relating to outstanding stock options granted under the Company’s stock option plans during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $45.27 and $9.08, respectively. The weighted average Black-Scholes value per share relating to outstanding stock options granted under the Company’s stock option plans during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $33.44. The fair value of each option granted to employees and directors during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 under the Company’s stock option plans has been calculated on the date of grant using the following weighted average assumptions: Black-Scholes Assumptions: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Expected dividend yield 0 % 0 % 0 % 0 % Expected volatility 86.59 % 100.43 % 91.03 % 101.07 % Risk free interest rate 1.80 % 1.99 % 1.57 % 1.90 % Expected term 6.08 years 5.96 years 6.03 years 6.01 years For options granted to nonemployees, the expected life of the option used is ten years, which is the contractual term of each such option. All other assumptions used to calculate the grant date fair value are generally consistent with the assumptions used for options granted to employees. The table below summarizes activity related to stock options: Shares Weighted-Average Weighted-Average Aggregate Intrinsic Outstanding as of December 31, 2014 1,996,615 $ 7.01 8.98 $ 59,362 Granted 1,369,807 45.27 Exercised (411,349 ) 1.30 28,184 Forfeited (84,261 ) 26.31 1,644 Outstanding as of September 30, 2015 2,870,812 $ 25.52 8.86 $ 55,937 Vested or expected to vest as of September 30, 2015 2,236,739 $ 23.58 8.78 $ 48,431 Exercisable as of September 30, 2015 565,941 $ 14.74 8.56 $ 15,607 As of September 30, 2015, the Company had unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to its unvested stock option awards of $29.6 million, which is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of 3.08 years. The total fair value of shares vested for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $7.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, stock option exercises resulted in proceeds of $0.5 million and $39,379, respectively. The intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $28.2 million and $2.4 million, respectively. Restricted Stock Awards The Company has granted restricted stock awards to certain officers, employees, directors, and consultants of the Company. During the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded $0.1 million of stock-based compensation expense related to its restricted stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense related to its restricted stock. The table below summarizes activity relating to restricted stock: Shares Outstanding as of December 31, 2014 170,832 Issued — Vested (99,513 ) Forfeited — Repurchased — Outstanding as of September 30, 2015 71,319 As of September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company had unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to its unvested restricted stock awards of $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, which is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of 0.49 years and 1.39 years, respectively Unvested shares are subject to repurchase by the Company, at the issuance price, upon the employee’s termination at the Company’s sole discretion.

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted from this report, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments which are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2015, the results of its operations and comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. Such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2015, or for any future period. On July 23, 2014, the Company completed the sale of 5,750,000 shares of its common stock in its IPO at a price to the public of $18.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $94.0 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering costs paid by the Company. The shares began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market on July 18, 2014. In connection with preparing for the IPO, the Company’s board of directors and stockholders approved a 1-for-3.15 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock effective July 2, 2014. All share and per share amounts in the unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein and notes thereto have been retroactively adjusted, where necessary, to give effect to this reverse stock split. In connection with the closing of the IPO, all of the Company’s outstanding redeemable convertible preferred stock automatically converted into shares of common stock as of July 23, 2014, resulting in the issuance by the Company of an additional 18,007,575 shares of common stock. The significant increase in common stock outstanding in July 2014 will impact the year-over-year comparability of the Company’s net loss per share calculations through the end of 2015. On April 20, 2015, the Company completed the sale of 2,628,571 shares of common stock in its underwritten public offering of its common stock at a price to the public of $52.50 per share, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $129.1 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering costs paid by the Company. |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries as disclosed in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, within the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” accompanying its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, as amended. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. |
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance that outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry specific guidance. The guidance is based on the principle that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to fulfill a contract. Entities have the option of using either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach for the adoption of the new standard. The guidance becomes effective for the Company in the year ending December 31, 2018, and the Company could early adopt the standard for the year ending December 31, 2017. The Company is currently assessing the method of adoption and the impact of this new accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures. In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements — Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40). The new guidance addresses management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Management’s evaluation should be based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably knowable at the date that the financial statements are issued. The standard will be effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories: Level 1 - Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company’s Level 1 assets consisted of money market funds totaling $204.9 million and $127.8 million, respectively. 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. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had no Level 2 assets or liabilities. 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. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had no Level 3 assets or liabilities. The Company’s financial instruments generally consist of cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying amounts for the applicable financial instruments reported in the balance sheets approximate their fair values at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. |
Deferred Offering Costs | Deferred Offering Costs The Company capitalizes certain legal, accounting and other third-party fees that are directly associated with in-process equity financings as other assets until such financings are consummated. After consummation of the IPO in July 2014, $2.3 million of these costs were recorded in stockholders’ equity as a reduction of additional paid-in capital generated as a result of the IPO. After consummation of the public offering of common stock in April 2015, $0.6 million of these costs were recorded in stockholders’ equity as a reduction of additional paid-in capital generated as a result of the offering. |
Segment Data | Segment Data The Company manages its operations as a single segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. The Company’s singular focus is on advancing medicines to treat CNS, where there are inadequate or no approved existing therapies. All tangible assets are held within the United States. |
