Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS | 1. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS Business Sensei Biotherapeutics, Inc. (the “Company” or “Sensei”) is a biopharmaceutical company that was incorporated in 1999 as a Maryland corporation until incorporated in Delaware on December 1, 2017. The Company is engaged in the discovery development and delivery of next generation immunotherapies with an initial focus on treatments for cancer. Liquidity and capital resources Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its resources to advancing development of its portfolio of programs, establishing and protecting its intellectual property, conducting research and development activities, organizing and staffing the Company, business planning, raising capital and providing general and administrative support for these operations. The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties common to early-stage companies in the biotechnology industry including, but not limited to, technical risks associated with the successful research, development and manufacturing of product candidates, development by competitors of new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations and the ability to secure additional capital to fund operations. Current and future programs will require significant 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 and infrastructure. 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. Since its inception, the Company has incurred substantial losses and had a net loss of $17.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $130.2 million. The Company expects to generate operating losses and negative operating cash flows for the foreseeable future. In February 2021, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”), in which the Company issued and sold 8,030,295 shares of its common stock at a public offering price of $19.00 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $152.6 million. The Company received $138.5 million in net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company expects that its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, as of June 30, 2021 of $162.5 million will be sufficient to fund its operations for at least the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements. The Company will need additional financing to support its continuing operations and pursue its growth strategy. Until such time as the Company can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, it expects to finance its operations through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. The Company may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other agreements when needed on favorable terms or at all. The inability to raise capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on the Company’s financial condition and its ability to pursue its business strategy. The Company will need to generate significant revenue to achieve profitability, and it may never do so. Reverse stock split On January 29, 2021, the Company effected a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock on a 48-for-1 basis (the “Reverse Stock Split”). In connection with the Reverse Stock Split, the conversion ratio for the Company’s Series AA and Series BB convertible preferred stock was proportionately adjusted such that the common stock issuable upon conversion of such preferred stock was decreased in proportion to the Reverse Stock Split. Accordingly, all common stock share and per share amounts, as well as all preferred stock conversion ratios, for all periods presented in these financial statements have been retroactively adjusted, to reflect this reverse stock split and adjustment of the Series AA and BB convertible preferred stock conversion ratios. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The Company has prepared the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”). The condensed consolidated financial statements include those accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of all intercompany accounts and transactions. Unaudited interim financial information The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted from these condensed consolidated financial statements, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods presented. Estimates are used for, but are not limited to, depreciation of equipment, the Company’s enterprise value, fair value of financial instruments, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and contingencies. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Cash and cash equivalents The Company classifies deposits in banks, money market funds and cash invested temporarily in various instruments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase as cash and cash equivalents. At June 30, 2021, cash and cash equivalents included cash on deposit at commercial banks and a money market fund that invests in U.S. Government securities. Marketable securities Investments consist of marketable securities with original maturities greater than 90 days. The Company has classified its investments with maturities beyond one year as short-term, based on their highly liquid nature and because such marketable securities represent the investment of cash that is available for current operations. The Company considers its investment portfolio of marketable securities to be available-for-sale. Accordingly, these investments are recorded at fair value (level 2). Unrealized gains and losses are reported as the accumulated other comprehensive items in stockholders’ equity. Amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts are recorded in other income (expense). Realized gains or losses on debt securities are included in interest income or interest expense, respectively. Recently Issued Accounting Standards Updates In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement Topic 820 significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. For certain unobservable inputs, an entity may disclose other quantitative information (such as the median or arithmetic average) in lieu of the weighted average if the entity determines that other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company adopted ASU No. 2018-13 on January 1, 2020 and it did not have a material effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes |

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | 7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The following tables present information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicate the level of the fair value hierarchy used to determine such fair values (in thousands): Fair value measurements at June 30, 2021 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Cash equivalents Money market funds $ 13,868 $ - $ - $ 13,868 Investments: Commercial paper - 59,950 - 59,950 Corporate bonds - 85,954 - 85,954 U.S. Government agencies - 995 - 995 Total $ 13,868 $ 146,899 $ - $ 160,767 When developing fair value estimates, the Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to measure fair value. The valuation technique used to measure fair value for the Company's Level 1 and Level 2 assets is a market approach, using prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets. If market prices are not available, the fair value measurement is based on models that use primarily market-based parameters including yield curves, volatilities, credit ratings and currency rates. In certain cases where market rate assumptions are not available, the Company is required to make judgments about assumptions market participants would use to estimate the fair value of a financial instrument. The Company’s embedded debt derivatives during 2020 are measured at fair value using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow valuation methodology. The determination of the fair value of embedded debt derivatives includes inputs not observable in the market and as such, represents a Level 3 measurement. The methodology utilized requires inputs based on certain subjective assumptions, including probabilities of debt settlement scenarios and a discount rate. This approach results in the classification of these embedded debt derivatives as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The assumptions utilized to value the embedded debt derivatives during the six months ended June 30, 2020 prior to the settlement of such instruments included the actual outcome of the underling debt host contract, whether it was settled on a qualified financing prior to the contractual maturity date or settlement at the contractual maturity date. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized $1.0 million of income in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as other income—fair value adjustments on embedded debt derivatives. The fair value of the embedded debt derivate was zero as of June 30, 2020. The following table provides a reconciliation of embedded debt derivatives measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) (in thousands): Amount Balance at December 31, 2019 $ 3,920 Change in fair value (995 ) Settlement (2,925 ) Balance at June 30, 2020 $ — There were no |

License Agreements In the normal course of business, the Company enters into licensing agreements with various parties to obtain the right to make, use, and sell licensed products currently in development. Litigation The Company records estimated losses from loss contingencies, such as a loss arising from a litigation, when it determines that it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Litigation is subject to many factors that are difficult to predict so that there can be no assurance, in the event of a material unfavorable result in one or more claims, the Company will not incur material costs. During 2017, the Company became actively involved in a matter pending in the Ontario (Canada) Superior Court of Justice which names, among multiple other defendants, the Company and two former officers of the Company. The claims pending in this matter allege breach of contract by the Company and seek declaratory and other relief, including monetary damages from the Company, and the individual defendants, including the Company’s former officers. The claims by such plaintiffs were originally made in a lawsuit filed in Ontario during October 2011, but was not pursued by such plaintiffs in any material manner until 2017. The Company believes that there is no merit to the claims alleged against the Company and its former officers, including no alleged breach of contract by the Company, and intends to vigorously defend against the claims pertaining to the Company and its former officers. At the present stage of the suit, management believes the outcome in this matter is not likely to have any material impact on the Company’s results, cash flows, or financial position. Coronavirus pandemic On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (the “COVID-19 outbreak”) and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally beyond its point of origin. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve as of the date of these financial statements. As such, it is uncertain as to the full magnitude that the pandemic will have on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations. Management is actively monitoring the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, suppliers, industry, and workforce. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity. Although the Company cannot estimate the length or gravity of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak at this time, if the pandemic continues, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of future operations, financial position, and liquidity in 2021. |

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION | 10. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION 2018 Equity Incentive Plan The Company’s 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”), provided for the Company to grant qualified incentive options, nonqualified options, stock grants and other stock-based awards to employees and non-employees to purchase the Company’s common stock. Upon the effectiveness of the 2021 Plan (as defined below), no further issuances will be made under the 2018 Plan. 2021 Stock Option and Incentive Plan The 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) was approved by the board of directors on January 27, 2021, and the Company’s stockholders on January 28, 2021 and became effective on the execution of the underwriting agreement related to the IPO. The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options to employees, including employees of any parent or subsidiary corporations, and for the grant of nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance awards and other forms of stock awards to employees, directors, and consultants, including employees and consultants of the Company’s affiliates. The number of shares initially reserved for issuance under the 2021 Plan was 5,000,000, which will automatically increase on January 1 of each calendar year, starting on January 1, 2022 through January 1, 2031, in an amount equal to 4.0% of the total number of shares of the Company’s capital stock outstanding on the last day of the calendar month before the date of each automatic increase, or a lesser number of shares determined by the board of directors. 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan The 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2021 ESPP”) was approved by the Company’s board of directors on January 27, 2021, and became effective on the execution of the underwriting agreement related to the IPO. A total of 333,333 shares of common stock were initially reserved for issuance under this plan, which will automatically increase on January 1 of each calendar year, beginning on January 1, 2022 through January 1, 2031, by 1.0% of the total shares of common stock outstanding on December 31st of the preceding calendar year, or the Evergreen Measurement Date; provided, that the number of shares added to the share reserve will be reduced automatically to the extent necessary to avoid causing the share reserve to exceed a number of shares equal to 1.0% of the shares of common stock outstanding on the applicable Evergreen Measurement Date and the board of directors may act prior to the first day of any calendar year to provide that there will be no January 1 increase in the share reserve for such calendar year or that the increase in the share reserve for such calendar year will be a lesser number of shares of the Company’s common stock than would otherwise occur. Stock Options During 2021, the Company granted options to purchase shares of common stock to employees, consultants, and nonexecutive directors pursuant to the 2018 Plan and 2021 Plan, respectively. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of the stock options on the grant dates at a weighted average fair value of $12.95.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are recognized based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using statutory rates. Management of the Company has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of its deferred tax assets, which are comprised principally of net operating loss carryforwards and research and development credits. Under the applicable accounting standards, management has considered the Company’s history of losses and concluded that it is more likely than not that the Company will not recognize the benefits of federal and state deferred tax assets. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been established against the Company’s otherwise recognizable net deferred tax assets. |

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The Company has prepared the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”). The condensed consolidated financial statements include those accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of all intercompany accounts and transactions. |
Unaudited interim financial information | Unaudited interim financial information The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted from these condensed consolidated financial statements, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods presented. Estimates are used for, but are not limited to, depreciation of equipment, the Company’s enterprise value, fair value of financial instruments, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and contingencies. Actual results may differ from those estimates. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and cash equivalents The Company classifies deposits in banks, money market funds and cash invested temporarily in various instruments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase as cash and cash equivalents. At June 30, 2021, cash and cash equivalents included cash on deposit at commercial banks and a money market fund that invests in U.S. Government securities. |
Marketable Securities | Marketable securities Investments consist of marketable securities with original maturities greater than 90 days. The Company has classified its investments with maturities beyond one year as short-term, based on their highly liquid nature and because such marketable securities represent the investment of cash that is available for current operations. The Company considers its investment portfolio of marketable securities to be available-for-sale. Accordingly, these investments are recorded at fair value (level 2). Unrealized gains and losses are reported as the accumulated other comprehensive items in stockholders’ equity. Amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts are recorded in other income (expense). Realized gains or losses on debt securities are included in interest income or interest expense, respectively. |
