Nature of Business | |
Nature of Business | 1. Nature of Business Blueprint Medicines Corporation (the Company), a Delaware corporation incorporated on October 14, 2008, is a biopharmaceutical company focused on improving the lives of patients with genomically defined diseases driven by abnormal kinase activation. The Company’s approach is to systematically and reproducibly identify kinases that are drivers of diseases in genomically defined patient populations and to craft drug candidates that may provide significant and durable clinical response to patients without adequate treatment options. The Company is devoting substantially all of its efforts to research and development, initial market development, and raising capital. The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to those of other early stage companies, including dependence on key individuals; establishing safety and efficacy in clinical trials for its drug candidates; the need to develop commercially viable drug candidates; competition from other companies, many of which are larger and better capitalized; and the need to obtain adequate additional financing to fund the development of its drug candidates. If the Company is unable to raise capital when needed or on attractive terms, it would be forced to delay, reduce, eliminate or out‑license certain of its research and development programs or future commercialization efforts. On May 5, 2015, the Company completed an initial public offering (IPO) of its common stock, which resulted in the sale of 9,367,708 shares of its common stock at a price to the public of $18.00 per share, including 1,221,874 shares of common stock sold by the Company pursuant to the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares in connection with the offering. The Company received net proceeds of $154.8 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses paid by the Company. On December 13, 2016, the Company closed its underwritten public offering of 5,750,000 shares of its common stock at a price to the public of $25.00 per share, including 750,000 shares of common stock sold by the Company pursuant to the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares in connection with the offering. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $134.5 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. As of December 31, 2016, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and investments of $268.2 million. Based on the Company’s current plans, the Company expects that its existing cash, cash equivalents and investments, excluding any potential option fees and milestone payments under its existing collaborations, will be sufficient to enable it to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into at least late 2018. |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements | 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements Basis of Presentation The audited consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) and Accounting Standards Update (ASU) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the rules and regulations of the SEC. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Blueprint Medicines Security Corporation, which is a Massachusetts subsidiary created to buy, sell and hold securities. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. In connection with preparing for its IPO, the Company effected a 1‑for‑5.5 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock. The reverse stock split became effective on April 10, 2015. All share and per share amounts in the financial statements and notes thereto have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to give effect to this reverse stock split, including reclassifying an amount equal to the reduction in par value of common stock to additional paid‑in capital. Upon the closing of the IPO in May 2015, all of the Company’s outstanding convertible preferred stock automatically converted into 15,467,479 shares of common stock, and warrants exercisable for convertible preferred stock automatically converted into warrants exercisable for 42,423 shares of common stock. On December 13, 2016, the Company closed its underwritten public offering of 5,750,000 shares. The significant increase in shares outstanding in the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 is expected to impact the year-over-year comparability of the Company’s net loss per share calculations. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management considers many factors in selecting appropriate financial accounting policies and in developing the estimates and assumptions that are used in the preparation of the financial statements. Management must apply significant judgment in this process. Management’s estimation process often may yield a range of potentially reasonable estimates and management must select an amount that falls within that range of reasonable estimates. Estimates are used in the following areas, among others: stock‑based compensation expense, including estimating the fair value of the Company’s common stock prior to the IPO; revenue recognition; the valuation of liability‑classified warrants prior to the IPO; accrued expenses; and income taxes. Significant Accounting Policies The Company’s critical accounting policies are those policies that require the most significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our financial statements. Management has determined that the Company’s most critical accounting policies are those relating to revenue recognition, accrued research and development expenses, available-for-sale investments and stock-based compensation. Available-for-Sale Investments The Company classifies marketable securities with a remaining maturity when purchased of greater than three months as available-for-sale. Marketable securities with a remaining maturity date greater than one year are classified as non-current. Available-for-sale securities are maintained by an investment manager and may consist of U.S. Treasury securities and U.S. government agency securities. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value with the unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of stockholders’ equity until realized. Any premium or discount arising at purchase is amortized and/or accreted to interest income and/or expense over the life of the instrument. Realized gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method and are included in other income (expense). If any adjustment to fair value reflects a decline in value of the investment, the Company considers all available evidence to evaluate the extent to which the decline is “other-than-temporary” and, if so, will mark the investment to market through a charge to the Company’s statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue from license and collaboration agreements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (ASC 605). Accordingly, revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met:
Amounts received prior to satisfying the revenue recognition criteria are recognized as deferred revenue in the Company’s balance sheets. Amounts expected to be recognized as revenue within the 12 months following the balance sheet date are classified as deferred revenue, current portion. Amounts not expected to be recognized as revenue within the 12 months following the balance sheet date are classified as deferred revenue, net of current portion. The Company’s revenue is currently generated through its collaboration agreements with Alexion Pharma Holding (Alexion) and F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd and Hoffmann-La Roche Inc. (collectively, Roche) . The terms of these agreements contain multiple elements, or deliverables, including an exclusive license granted by the Company to Alexion and Roche to research, develop, manufacture and commercialize the licensed products and the compounds in the field in the territory, as well as research and development activities to be performed by the Company on behalf of Alexion and Roche related to the licensed product candidates. In addition, the terms of these agreements include payments to the Company of one or more of the following: a nonrefundable, upfront payment; contingent milestone payments related to specified pre-clinical milestones, development milestones and sales-based commercial milestones; fees for research and development services rendered; and royalties on commercial sales of licensed product candidates, if any. To date, the Company has received the upfront payments, payments for the achievement of certain pre-clinical milestones under the Alexion agreement and payments for certain research and development services. The Company is eligible to earn additional milestone payments under both agreements. The Company has not earned royalty revenue as a result of product sales. See Note 13 for additional information on this agreement. When evaluating multiple element arrangements, the Company considers whether the deliverables under the arrangement represent separate units of accounting. This evaluation requires subjective determinations and requires management to make judgments about the individual deliverables and whether such deliverables are separable from the other aspects of the contractual relationship. In determining the units of accounting, management evaluates certain criteria, including whether the deliverables have standalone value, based on the consideration of the relevant facts and circumstances for each arrangement. The consideration received is allocated among the separate units of accounting using the relative selling price method, and the applicable revenue recognition criteria are applied to each of the separate units. Deliverables are considered separate units of accounting provided that: (i) the delivered item(s) has value to the customer on a stand-alone basis and (ii) if the arrangement includes a general right of return relative to the delivered item(s), delivery or performance of the undelivered item(s) is considered probable and substantially in the control of the Company. In assessing whether an item has stand-alone value, the Company considers factors such as the research, manufacturing and commercialization capabilities of the collaboration partner and the availability of the associated expertise in the general marketplace. In addition, the Company considers whether the collaboration partner can use the deliverable(s) for their intended purpose without the receipt of the remaining element(s), whether the value of the deliverable is dependent on the undelivered item(s) and whether there are other vendors that can provide the undelivered element(s). The Company’s collaboration agreements with Alexion and Roche do not contain a general right of return relative to the delivered item(s). Arrangement consideration that is fixed or determinable is allocated among the separate units of accounting using the relative selling price method. Then, the applicable revenue recognition criteria in ASC 605-25 are applied to each of the separate units of accounting in determining the appropriate period and pattern of recognition. The Company determines the selling price of a unit of accounting following the hierarchy of evidence prescribed by ASC 605-25. Accordingly, the Company determines the estimated selling price for units of accounting within each arrangement using vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of selling price, if available, third-party evidence (TPE) of selling price if VSOE is not available, or best estimate of selling price (BESP) if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. The Company typically uses BESP to estimate the selling price, since it generally does not have VSOE or TPE of selling price for its units of accounting. Determining the BESP for a unit of accounting requires significant judgment. In developing the BESP for a unit of accounting, the Company considers applicable market conditions and relevant entity-specific factors, including factors that were contemplated in negotiating the agreement with the customer and estimated costs. The Company validates the BESP for units of accounting by evaluating whether changes in the key assumptions used to determine the BESP will have a significant effect on the allocation of arrangement consideration between multiple units of accounting. In the event that an element of a multiple element arrangement does not represent a separate unit of accounting, the Company recognizes revenue from the combined element over the period over which it expects to fulfill its performance obligations or as undelivered items are delivered, as appropriate, if all of the other revenue recognition criteria in ASC 605-25 are met. If the pattern of performance in which the service is provided to the customer can be determined and objectively measurable performance measures exist, then the Company recognizes revenue under the arrangement using the proportional performance method. If there is no discernible pattern of performance and/or objectively measurable performance measures do not exist, then the Company recognizes revenue under the arrangement on a straight-line basis over the period the Company is expected to complete its performance obligations. Revenue recognized is limited to the lesser of the cumulative amount of payments received or the cumulative amount of revenue earned, as determined using the straight-line method or proportional performance method, as applicable, as of the period ending date. The Company’s multiple-element revenue arrangements may include the following: Exclusive Licenses The deliverables under the Company’s collaboration agreements may include exclusive licenses to research, develop, manufacture and commercialize licensed products. To account for this element of an arrangement, management evaluates whether an exclusive license has stand-alone value from the undelivered elements based on the consideration of the relevant facts and circumstances of the arrangement, including the research and development capabilities of the collaboration partner. The Company may recognize the arrangement consideration allocated to licenses upon delivery of the license if facts and circumstances indicate that the license has stand-alone value from the undelivered elements, which generally include research and development services. The Company defers arrangement consideration allocated to licenses if facts and circumstances indicate that the delivered license does not have stand-alone value from the undelivered elements. When management believes a license does not have stand-alone value from the other deliverables to be provided in the arrangement, the Company recognizes revenue attributed to the license on a proportional basis over the Company’s contractual or estimated performance period, which is typically the term of the Company’s research and development obligations. If management cannot reasonably estimate when the Company’s performance obligation ends, then revenue is deferred until management can reasonably estimate when the performance obligation ends. The periods over which revenue should be recognized are subject to estimates by management and may change over the course of the research and development and licensing agreement. Such a change could have a material impact on the amount of revenue the Company records in future periods. Research and Development Services The deliverables under the Company’s collaboration agreements may include research and development services to be performed by the Company on behalf of the partner. Payments or reimbursements resulting from the Company’s research and development efforts are recognized as the services are performed and presented on a gross basis because the Company is the principal for such efforts, so long as there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection of the related amount is reasonably assured. Milestone Revenue The Company’s collaboration agreements may include contingent milestone payments related to specified pre-clinical milestones, development milestones and sales-based commercial milestones. At the inception of an arrangement that includes milestone payments, the Company evaluates whether each milestone is substantive and at risk to both parties on the basis of the contingent nature of the milestone. This evaluation includes an assessment of whether:
The Company evaluates factors such as the scientific, clinical, regulatory, commercial and other risks that must be overcome to achieve the respective milestone and the level of effort and investment required to achieve the respective milestone in making this assessment. There is considerable judgment involved in determining whether a milestone satisfies all of the criteria required to conclude that a milestone is substantive. Milestones that are not considered substantive are accounted for as license payments and recognized over the remaining period of performance from the date of achievement of the milestone. Milestones that are considered substantive will be recognized in their entirety upon successful accomplishment of the milestone with a cumulative catch up adjustments, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met. Royalty Revenue. The Company will recognize royalty revenue in the period of sale of the related product(s), based on the underlying contract terms, provided that the reported sales are reliably measurable and the Company has no remaining performance obligations, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met. Comprehensive Income (Loss) Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non‑owner sources. Other comprehensive income (loss) consisted of unrealized gains and losses on investments for the year ended December 31, 2016. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, comprehensive loss was equal to net loss. Research and Development Costs Expenditures relating to research and development are expensed in the period incurred. Research and development expenses consist of both internal and external costs associated with the development of the Company’s selective cancer therapies and building of its discovery platform. In certain circumstances, the Company is required to make nonrefundable advance payments to vendors for goods or services that will be received in the future for use in research and development activities. In such circumstances, the nonrefundable advance payments are deferred and capitalized, even when there is no alternative future use for the research and development, until related goods or services are provided. In circumstances where amounts have been paid in excess of costs incurred, the Company records a prepaid expense.
Property and Equipment, Net Property and equipment consists of lab equipment, furniture and fixtures, computer equipment, software, and leasehold improvements, all of which is stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are recorded to expense as incurred, whereas major betterments are capitalized as additions to property and equipment. Depreciation is recognized over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight‑line method. Impairment of Long‑Lived Assets The Company continually evaluates whether events or circumstances have occurred that indicate that the estimated remaining useful life of its long‑lived assets may warrant revision or that the carrying value of these assets may be impaired. The Company has not recognized any impairment charges through December 31, 2016. Warrants The Company accounts for warrant instruments that either conditionally or unconditionally obligate the issuer to transfer assets and liabilities regardless of the timing of the redemption feature or price, even though the underlying shares may be classified as permanent or temporary equity. These warrants are subject to revaluation at each balance sheet date, and any changes in fair value are recorded as a component of other income (expense), until the earlier of their exercise or expiration or the time the warrants no longer conditionally or unconditionally obligate the Company to transfer assets or liabilities, which occurred upon the IPO, at which time the warrant liability was reclassified to stockholders’ equity. Stock‑Based Compensation Expense The Company expenses the fair value of employee stock awards net of estimated forfeitures on a straight‑line basis over the requisite service period, which generally is the vesting period. Compensation cost for restricted stock awards issued to employees is measured using the grant date intrinsic value of the award, net of estimated forfeitures, adjusted to reflect actual forfeitures. The Company estimates the fair value of the options granted to employees at the date of grant using the Black‑Scholes option‑pricing model that requires management to apply judgment and make estimates, including:
The amount of stock‑based compensation expense recognized during a period is based on the fair value of the portion of the awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The term “forfeitures” is distinct from “cancellations” or “expirations” and represents only the unvested portion of the surrendered option. The Company evaluates its forfeiture rate at each reporting period. Ultimately, the actual expense recognized over the vesting period will be for only those options that vest. Stock‑based awards issued to non‑employees, including directors for non‑board‑related services, are accounted for based on the fair value of such services received or of the intrinsic value of equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured. These stock‑based awards are revalued at each vesting date and period‑end. Stock‑based awards subject to service‑based vesting conditions are expensed on a straight‑line basis over the vesting period. Income Taxes The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of the assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance against deferred tax assets is recorded if, based on the weight of the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions using a more‑likely‑than‑not threshold for recognizing and resolving uncertain tax positions. The evaluation of uncertain tax positions is based on factors including, but not limited to, changes in the law, the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns, the effective settlement of matters subject to audit, new audit activity, and changes in facts or circumstances related to a tax position. Concentrations of Credit Risk and Off‑Balance‑Sheet Risk The Company has no significant off‑balance‑sheet risk such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts, or other foreign hedging arrangements. Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash, cash equivalents and investments in a custodian account at a high quality financial institution, and consequently, the Company believes that such funds are subject to minimal credit risk. Accounts receivable represents amounts due from the Company’s collaboration partner. The Company monitors economic conditions to identify facts or circumstances that may indicate that its accounts receivable is at risk of collection. Segment and Geographic Information Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer. The Company and the chief operating decision maker view the Company’s operations and manage its business as one operating segment. The Company operates only in the United States. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605-25, Multiple-Element Arrangements and most industry-specific guidance. The new standard requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The update 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 obtain or fulfill a contract. This new guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those years) beginning January 1, 2018. Early adoption in 2017 is permitted. Companies have the option of applying this new guidance retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (the full retrospective method) or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying this update recognized at the date of initial application (the modified retrospective method). The Company currently anticipates adoption of the new standard effective January 1, 2018 under the modified retrospective method. The Company is in the process of determining the impact of the new guidance on its financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This new standard is intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date of issuance of the entity’s financial statements and to provide related footnote disclosures. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. The standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or footnote disclosures as of the December 31, 2016 adoption date, but may require additional disclosures in future periods.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which amends ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. The new standard identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, as well as certain classifications on the statement of cash flows. The new standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this standard is expected to impact the income tax footnote disclosures and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In November, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes—Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes(Topic 740). The new standard requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The adoption of this standard in the last quarter of 2016 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations as its net deferred tax assets have been fully offset by a valuation allowance. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 will change the way the Company recognizes its leased assets. ASU 2016-02 will require organizations that lease assets—referred to as "lessees"—to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities representing the rights and obligations created by those leases. ASU 2016-02 will also require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those years) beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the methods of adoption allowed by the new standard and the effect that adoption of the standard is expected to have on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. |

Cash Equivalents and Investments | 3. Cash Equivalents and Investments Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into cash with original maturities of three months or less when purchased. Investments consist of securities with original maturities greater than 90 days when purchased. The Company classifies these investments as available-for-sale and records them at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Unrealized gains or losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Premiums or discounts from par value are amortized to investment income over the life of the underlying investment. Cash equivalents and investments, available-for-sale, consisted of the following at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (in thousands):
Although available to be sold to meet operating needs or otherwise, securities are generally held through maturity. The cost of securities sold is determined based on the specific identification method for purposes of recording realized gains and losses. During the year ended December 31, 2016, there were no realized gains or losses on sales of investments, and no investments were adjusted for other than temporary declines in fair value. At December 31, 2016, the Company held 33 securities that were in an unrealized loss position. The aggregate fair value of securities held by the Company in an unrealized loss position for less than twelve months as of December 31, 2016 was $147.1 million and there were no securities held by the Company in an unrealized loss position for more than twelve months. The Company has the intent and ability to hold such securities until recovery. The Company determined that there was no material change in the credit risk of the above investments. As a result, the Company determined it did not hold any investments with an other-than temporary impairment as of December 31, 2016. |

Fair Value of Financial Instruments | 4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels as follows:
Financial instruments measured at fair value as of December 31, 2016, are classified below based on the fair value hierarchy described above:
Financial instruments measured at fair value as of December 31, 2015, are classified below based on the fair value hierarchy described above:
At December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the fair value of the Company’s term loan payable is determined using current applicable rates for similar instruments as of the balance sheet date. The carrying value of the Company’s term loan payable approximates fair value because the Company’s interest rate yield approximates current market rates. The Company’s term loan payable is a Level 3 liability within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the preferred stock warrant liability was determined based on Level 3 inputs and utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model (see Note 10). On May 5, 2015, upon completion of the IPO, the warrants to purchase preferred stock converted into warrants to purchase common stock and the Company reclassified the fair value of the warrants as of May 5, 2015 to additional paid-in capital. The following table presents activity in the preferred stock warrant liability during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 (in thousands):

Collaborations | |
Collaborations | 8. Collaborations Roche In March 2016, the Company entered into a collaboration and license agreement (as amended, Roche agreement) with Roche for the discovery, development and commercialization of up to five small molecule therapeutics targeting kinases believed to be important in cancer immunotherapy, as single products or possibly in combination with other therapeutics. The parties initiated activities for three of the collaboration programs in 2016, and the parties have agreed to work together to use the Company’s novel target discovery engine and proprietary compound library to select targets for up to two additional collaboration programs. Under the Roche agreement, Roche is granted up to five option rights to obtain an exclusive license to exploit products derived from the collaboration programs in the field of cancer immunotherapy. Such option rights are triggered upon the achievement of Phase 1 proof-of-concept. For up to three of the five collaboration programs, if Roche exercises its option, Roche will receive worldwide, exclusive commercialization rights for the licensed products. For up to two of the five collaboration programs, if Roche exercises its option, the Company will retain commercialization rights in the United States for the licensed products, and Roche will receive commercialization rights outside of the United States for the licensed products. The Company will also retain worldwide rights to any products for which Roche elects not to exercise its applicable option. Prior to Roche’s exercise of an option, the Company will have the lead responsibility for drug discovery and pre-clinical development of all collaboration programs. In addition, the Company will have the lead responsibility for the conduct of all Phase 1 clinical trials other than those Phase 1 clinical trials for any product in combination with Roche’s portfolio of therapeutics, for which Roche will have the right to lead the conduct of such Phase 1 clinical trials. Pursuant to the Roche agreement, the parties will share the costs of Phase 1 development for each collaboration program. In addition, Roche will be responsible for post-Phase 1 development costs for each licensed product for which it retains global commercialization rights, and the Company and Roche will share post-Phase 1 development costs for each licensed product for which the Company retains commercialization rights in the United States. Subject to the terms of the Roche agreement, the Company received an upfront cash payment of $45.0 million and will be eligible to receive up to approximately $965.0 million in contingent option fees and milestone payments related to specified research, pre-clinical, clinical, regulatory and sales-based milestones. Of the total contingent payments, up to approximately $215.0 million are for option fees and milestone payments for research, pre-clinical and clinical development events prior to licensing across all five potential collaboration programs, including contingent milestone payments for initiation of each of the collaboration programs for which the parties will work together to select targets (pre-option exercise milestones). In addition, for any licensed product for which Roche retains worldwide commercialization rights, the Company will be eligible to receive tiered royalties ranging from low double-digits to high-teens on future net sales of the licensed product. For any licensed product for which the Company retains commercialization rights in the United States, the Company and Roche will be eligible to receive tiered royalties ranging from mid-single-digits to low double-digits on future net sales in the other party’s respective territories in which it commercializes the licensed product. The upfront cash payment and any payments for milestones, option fees and royalties are non-refundable, non-creditable and not subject to set-off. The Roche agreement will continue until the date when no royalty or other payment obligations are or will become due, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of the Roche agreement. Prior to its exercise of its first option, Roche may terminate the Roche agreement at will, in whole or on a collaboration target-by-collaboration target basis, upon 120 days’ prior written notice to the Company. Following its exercise of an option, Roche may terminate the Roche agreement at will, in whole, on a collaboration target-by-collaboration target basis, on a collaboration program-by-collaboration program basis or, if a licensed product has been commercially sold, on a country-by-country basis, (i) upon 120 days’ prior written notice if a licensed product has not been commercially sold or (ii) upon 180 days’ prior written notice if a licensed product has been commercially sold. Either party may terminate the Roche agreement for the other party’s uncured material breach or insolvency and in certain other circumstances agreed to by the parties. In certain termination circumstances, the Company is entitled to retain specified licenses to be able to continue to exploit the licensed products. The Company determined that there were five deliverables under the Roche agreement: (i) a non-transferable, sub-licensable and non-exclusive license to use the Company’s intellectual property and collaboration compounds to conduct research activities;(ii) conducting research and development activities through Phase 1 clinical trials under the research plan; (iii) providing pre-clinical and clinical supply of collaboration compounds; (iv) participation on a joint research committee (JRC) and joint development committee (JDC); and (v) regulatory responsibilities under Phase 1 clinical trials. The Company determined that the license did not have value to Roche on a stand-alone basis due to the specialized nature of the research activities to be provided by the Company that are not available in the marketplace and the fact that the license is to perform research and development only. Therefore, the license has limited value without the performance of the research and development activities and is not separable. The pre-clinical and clinical supply activities are integral to the performance of the research and development activities and can only be used for the performance of such activities, and the regulatory responsibilities are dependent on the research and development activities. The Company determined that the best estimate for the selling price of the JRC and JDC participation was inconsequential. Accordingly, the Company combined the license, pre-clinical and clinical supply, JRC and JDC participation and regulatory responsibilities deliverables with the research and development activities, the last item to be delivered in the arrangement, as one unit of accounting. The Company is recognizing the total allocable arrangement consideration consisting of the upfront payment of $45.0 million as revenue on a straight-line basis over the Company’s best estimate of the period it expects to perform research and development activities. The Company expects the services to be delivered ratably. The Company evaluated whether the option fees that may be received in connection with the Roche agreement are substantive. The Company concluded that the option fees were substantive due to the uncertainty around whether the goals of the collaboration will be achieved, and therefore the options are not a deliverable in the current arrangement. If Roche elects to exercise the options, the exercises and related contingent deliverables would be accounted for as a separate arrangement. The Company evaluated whether the milestones that may be received in connection with the Roche agreement are substantive milestones. Pre-option exercise milestones, of up to $215.0 million, that are expected to be achieved as a result of the Company’s efforts during the performance of the research and development activities are considered substantive and are recognized as revenue upon the achievement of the milestone, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met. The development event milestones are not considered substantive because the Company does not contribute effort to the achievement of such milestones as they are expected to be achieved after the performance of the research and development activities. Consideration received with respect to these milestones will be added to the total arrangement consideration that has been allocated to the identified units of accounting. As a result, that amount is recognized as revenue ratably over the period starting from the effective date of the agreement to the date that the Company will complete all of its obligations, with a cumulative catch-up from the effective date through the date of achievement of the milestone. If the consideration is received after the completion of all of the Company’s obligations, the amount will be recognized as revenue immediately. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recognized revenue under the Roche agreement of $4.5 million, which represents a portion of the $45.0 million upfront payment. Alexion In March 2015, the Company entered into a research, development and commercialization agreement (Alexion agreement) with Alexion to research, develop and commercialize drug candidates for an undisclosed activated kinase target, which is the cause of a rare genetic disease. Under the terms of the Alexion agreement, the Company is responsible for research and pre-clinical development activities related to drug candidates and Alexion is responsible for all clinical development, manufacturing and commercialization activities related to drug candidates. Alexion is responsible for funding 100% of the Company’s research and development costs incurred under the research plan, including pass‑through costs and a negotiated yearly rate per full‑time equivalent for its employees’ time and their associated overhead expenses. The Company received a $15.0 million non‑refundable upfront payment in March 2015 upon execution of the Alexion agreement and is eligible to receive over $250.0 million in payments upon the successful achievement of pre‑specified pre-clinical, clinical, regulatory and commercial milestones as follows: (i) up to $6.0 million in pre-clinical milestone payments for the first licensed product, (ii) up to $83.0 million and $61.5 million in development milestone payments for the first and second licensed products, respectively, and (iii) up to $51.0 million in commercial milestone payments for each of the first and second licensed products. Alexion will pay the Company tiered royalties, ranging from mid‑single to low‑double digit percentages, on a country‑by‑country and licensed-product‑by‑licensed product basis, on worldwide net product sales of licensed products. The royalty term for each licensed product in each country is the period commencing with first commercial sale of such licensed product in such country and ending on the later of (i) the expiration of the last‑to‑expire valid claim of specified patents covering such licensed product, (ii) the expiration of the applicable regulatory exclusivity period, and (iii) 10 or 15 years from specified commercial sales. There are no refund provisions in the Alexion agreement. Alexion has the right to terminate the Alexion agreement if the Company undergoes a change of control or becomes an affiliate of a biotechnology or pharmaceutical company, and may terminate the Alexion agreement at will upon 90 days prior written notice. The Company and Alexion have the right to terminate the Alexion agreement in the event of the other party’s uncured breach or insolvency, and in certain other circumstances agreed to by the parties. The Company determined that there were three deliverables under the Alexion agreement: (i) an exclusive license to research, develop, manufacture and commercialize the licensed products and the compounds in the field in the territory, (ii) conducting research and development activities under the research plan and (iii) participation on a joint steering committee (JSC) and joint project team (JPT). The Company determined that the license did not have value to Alexion on a stand-alone basis due to the specialized nature of the research services to be provided by the Company that are not available in the marketplace. Therefore, the deliverables are not separable and, accordingly, the license, undelivered research and development activities and JSC and JPT participation are a single unit of accounting. When multiple deliverables are accounted for as a single unit of accounting, the Company bases its revenue recognition model on the final deliverable. Under the Alexion agreement, the last deliverable to be completed is its research and development activities and participation on the JSC and JPT, which are expected to be delivered over the same performance period. The Company is utilizing a proportional performance model to recognize revenue under the Alexion agreement. The Company evaluated whether the milestones that may be received in connection with the Alexion agreement are substantive or non-substantive milestones. The Company concluded that the first pre-clinical milestone payment in the Alexion agreement is non-substantive due to the certainty at the date the arrangement was entered into that the event will be achieved. In the second quarter of 2015, the Company achieved the first pre-clinical milestone under the Alexion agreement and received a $1.8 million payment from Alexion. The Company is recognizing revenues from the related milestone payment over the period of performance. The remaining non-refundable pre-clinical milestones that are expected to be achieved as a result of the Company’s efforts during the period of substantial involvement are considered substantive and are recognized as revenue upon the achievement of the milestone, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met. The Company has recognized and received an aggregate of $2.0 million in substantive milestones through December 31, 2016. Milestones that are expected to be achieved after the period of substantial involvement are not considered substantive because the Company does not contribute effort to the achievement of such milestones. These milestones are recognized as revenue upon achievement of the milestone, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met, as there are no undelivered elements remaining and no continuing performance obligations. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recognized revenue under the Alexion agreement of $23.3 million, which represents $14.6 million of reimbursable research and development costs, $1.8 million in milestone payments that were recognized upon achievement, as well as a portion of the $15.0 million upfront payment and the $1.8 million non-substantive milestone payment previously received. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company received $14.2 million related to reimbursable research and development costs under the Alexion agreement. As of December 31, 2016, the Company has recorded unbilled accounts receivable of $3.6 million related to reimbursable research and development costs under the Alexion agreement for activities performed during the fourth quarter of 2016. |

Term Loan | |||||||||||||||||||||
Term Loan | 9. Term Loan In May 2013, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the 2013 Term Loan), which provided for up to $5.0 million in funding, to be made available in three tranches. Loan advances accrue interest at a fixed rate of 2% above the prime rate. In June 2013, the Company drew the first loan advance of $1.0 million under the 2013 Term Loan and was required to make interest‑only payments until April 1, 2014, and consecutive monthly payments of principal, plus accrued interest, over the remaining term through March 2017. In September 2013, the Company drew the second loan advance of $2.0 million under the 2013 Term Loan and was required to make interest‑only payments until April 1, 2014, and consecutive monthly payments of principal, plus accrued interest, over the remaining term through March 2017. In June 2014, the Company drew the remaining $2.0 million advance under the 2013 Term Loan and was required to make interest‑only payments until January 1, 2015, and consecutive monthly payments of principal, plus accrued interest, over the remaining term through December 2017. In November 2014, the Company amended the 2013 Term Loan to allow the Company to borrow an additional $5.0 million (the 2014 Term Loan). The Company accounted for the amendment as a modification to the existing 2013 Term Loan. The Company immediately drew the additional $5.0 million under the 2014 Term Loan and was required to make interest‑only payments until December 1, 2015, and consecutive monthly payments of principal, plus accrued interest, over the remaining term through November 2018. The Company is required to pay a fee of 4% of the total loan advances at the end of the term of each of the 2013 Term Loan and the 2014 Term Loan. The fee is being accreted to interest expense over the term of the 2013 Term Loan and the 2014 Term Loan. In the event of prepayment, the Company is obligated to pay 1% to 2% of the amount of the outstanding principal depending upon the timing of the prepayment. There are no financial covenants associated with the loan and security agreement. The 2013 Term Loan and 2014 Term Loan are collateralized by a blanket lien on all corporate assets, excluding intellectual property, and by a negative pledge of the Company’s intellectual property. The term loan contains covenants, including restrictions on dividends and default provisions. The 2013 Term Loan and 2014 Term Loan contain customary default provisions that include material adverse events, as defined therein. The Company has determined that the risk of subjective acceleration under the material adverse events clause is remote and therefore has classified the outstanding principal in current and long‑term liabilities based on scheduled principal payments. The Company assessed all terms and features of the 2013 Term Loan and the 2014 Term Loan in order to identify any potential embedded features that would require bifurcation. As part of this analysis, the Company assessed the economic characteristics and risks of the term loan, including put and call features. The Company determined that all features of each of the 2013 Term Loan and the 2014 Term Loan are clearly and closely associated with a debt host and do not require bifurcation as a derivative liability, or the fair value of the feature is immaterial to the Company’s financial statements. The Company will continue to reassess the features on a quarterly basis to determine if they require separate accounting. Scheduled monthly principal payments on the term loan, as of December 31, 2016, are as follows (in thousands):

10. Warrants In connection with the 2013 Term Loan, the Company issued a warrant to Silicon Valley Bank to purchase 150,000 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share (the Series A Warrant). In connection with the 2014 Term Loan, the Company issued an additional warrant to Silicon Valley Bank to purchase 83,333 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock at an exercise price of $1.20 per share (the Series B Warrant). Both warrants were exercisable immediately and have a ten‑year life. The Company initially valued the Series A Warrant and the Series B Warrant at issuance and at the balance sheet dates using the Black‑Scholes option pricing model. The significant assumptions used in estimating the fair value of the warrants include the volatility of the stock underlying the warrant, risk‑free interest rate, estimated fair value of the preferred stock underlying the warrant, and the estimated term of the warrant. The fair value of the preferred stock underlying the warrants was estimated using the implied value from the common stock valuations on those dates. In accordance with ASC 480, the characteristics of these warrants and the rights and privileges of the underlying preferred stock resulted in the classification of these warrants as a liability, and they were re‑measured to the‑then current fair value at each balance sheet date through the completion of the IPO. Re‑measurement gains or losses were recorded in other income (expense) in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Changes in the fair value of the warrants represented a recurring measurement that was classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy wherein fair value is estimated using significant unobservable inputs. The Company recorded $0.4 million of expense associated with the change in fair value of the warrants in the year ended December 31, 2015 equal to the change in fair value of the warrants from December 31, 2014 to May 5, 2015. Upon completion of the IPO, the Series A Warrant became exercisable for 27,272 shares of the common stock at an exercise price of $5.50 per share, and the Series B Warrant became exercisable for 15,151 shares of the common stock at an exercise price of $6.60 per share. On the date of the conversion of the warrants, the Company revalued the outstanding warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
The fair value of the warrants at May 5, 2015 was $0.8 million and the Company reclassified the balance to additional paid-in capital. On May 13, 2015, Silicon Valley Bank exercised the Series A Warrant and the Series B Warrant pursuant to the cashless exercise feature of the warrants. In connection with the exercise of the Series A Warrant under the 2013 Term Loan, the Company issued 21,281 shares of common stock to Silicon Valley Bank. Warrants to purchase 5,991 shares of common stock were cancelled as payment for the aggregate exercise price of the Series A Warrant to Silicon Valley Bank. In connection with the exercise of the Series B Warrant under the 2014 Term Loan, the Company issued 11,157 shares of common stock. Warrants to purchase 3,994 shares of common stock were cancelled as payment for the aggregate exercise price of the Series B Warrant. The Company recorded a debt discount upon issuance of the warrants, which is being accreted as interest expense over the remaining term of the loan. The Company recorded interest expense related to the Series A Warrant and the Series B Warrant of less than $0.1 million in each of the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014. |

Stock Awards | 11. Stock Awards 2015 Stock Option and Incentive Plan In 2015, the Company’s board of directors and stockholders approved the 2015 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the 2015 Plan), which replaced the Company’s 2011 Stock Option and Grant Plan, as amended (the 2011 Plan). The 2015 Plan includes incentive stock options, nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock, performance share awards and cash‑based awards. The Company initially reserved a total of 1,460,084 shares of common stock for the issuance of awards under the 2015 Plan. The 2015 Plan provides that the number of shares reserved and available for issuance under the 2015 Plan will be cumulatively increased on January 1 of each calendar year by 4% of the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31 or such lesser amount as specified by the compensation committee of the board of directors. For the calendar year beginning January 1, 2016 and 2017, the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2015 Plan was increased by 1,087,842 and 1,325,019 shares, respectively. In addition, the total number of shares reserved for issuance is subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend or other change in our capitalization. At December 31, 2016, there were 1,551,519 shares available for future grant under the 2015 Plan. Awards Options and restricted stock awards granted by the Company generally vest ratably over four years, with a one‑year cliff for new employee awards, and are exercisable from the date of grant for a period of ten years. A summary of the Company’s unvested restricted stock and related information follows:
The total fair value of restricted stock that vested during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 was $2.7 million, $4.9 million and $1.5 million, respectively. A summary of the Company’s stock option activity and related information follows:
The fair value of stock options is estimated on the grant date using the Black‑Scholes option‑pricing model based on the following weighted average assumptions:
The weighted‑average grant date fair value of options granted in the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 was $13.06, $8.55 and $3.46, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised in the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 was $3.1 million, $6.8 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Total stock‑based compensation expense recognized for all stock‑based compensation awards in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss is as follows (in thousands):
At December 31, 2016, there was $15.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted‑average period of 2.39 years. Due to an operating loss, the Company does not record tax benefits associated with stock‑based compensation or option exercises. Tax benefit will be recorded when realized. 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan In 2015, the Company’s board of directors and stockholders approved the 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the 2015 ESPP), which became effective upon the closing of the IPO in May 2015. The Company initially reserved a total of 243,347 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2015 ESPP. The 2015 ESPP provides that the number of shares reserved and available for issuance under the 2015 ESPP will be cumulatively increased on January 1 of each calendar years by 1% of the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31 or such lesser amount as specified by the compensation committee of the board of directors. For the calendar year beginning January 1, 2016 and 2017, the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2015 ESPP was increased by 271,960 and 331,254 shares. The Company issued 23,325 shares under the ESPP during the year ended December 31, 2016. |

Net Loss per Share | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Net Loss per Share | 12. Net Loss per Share Basic net loss per share applicable to common stockholders is calculated by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Net loss applicable to common stockholders is calculated by adjusting the net loss of the Company for cumulative preferred stock dividends. Diluted net loss per share applicable to common stockholders is calculated by adjusting weighted average shares outstanding for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents outstanding for the period. For purposes of the dilutive net loss per share applicable to common stockholders calculation, convertible preferred stock, warrants, stock options, and unvested restricted stock are considered to be common stock equivalents but are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share applicable to common stockholders, as their effect would be anti‑dilutive; therefore, basic and diluted net loss per share applicable to common stockholders were the same for all periods presented as a result of the Company’s net loss. The following common stock equivalents were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share applicable to common stockholders for the periods indicated because including them would have had an anti‑dilutive effect:
The weighted average number of common shares used in net loss per share applicable to common stockholders on a basic and diluted basis were 27,491,669, 18,235,614 and 1,420,518 for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. |

Income Taxes | 14. Income Taxes A reconciliation of the U.S. statutory income tax rate to the Company’s effective tax rate is as follows for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014:
The Company had net losses in all periods presented and therefore has not recognized any federal or state income tax expense. The Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities consist of the following:
Management has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of its deferred tax assets, and has determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not recognize the benefits of its federal and state deferred tax assets, and as a result, a valuation allowance of $84.1 million, $52.9 million and $33.1 million has been established at December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The change in the valuation allowance was $31.1 million, $19.8 million and $15.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Company has incurred net operating losses (NOL) since inception. At December 31, 2016, the Company had federal and state NOL carryforwards of $179.8 million and $177.3 million, respectively, which expire beginning in 2030. As of December 31, 2016, the Company had federal and state research and development tax credit carryforwards of $2.8 million and $1.5 million, respectively, which expire beginning in 2025. The Company had net NOLs related to stock compensation in the amount of $2.7 million that is not included in the deferred tax assets. When the excess stock-based compensation related to NOL carryover tax assets are realized, the benefit will be credited directly to equity. As of December 31, 2016, the Company had federal orphan drug credits of $5.1 million, which expire beginning in 2035 and state investment tax credits of $0.1 million, which expire beginning in 2018. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), provides for a limitation of the annual use of net operating losses and other tax attributes (such as research and development tax credit carryforwards) following certain ownership changes (as defined by the Code) that could limit the Company’s ability to utilize these carryforwards. At this time, the Company has not completed a study to assess whether an ownership change under Section 382 of the Code has occurred, or whether there have been multiple ownership changes since the Company’s formation. The Company may have experienced ownership changes, as defined by the Code, as a result of past financing transactions. Accordingly, the Company’s ability to utilize the aforementioned carryforwards may be limited. In addition, U.S. tax laws limit the time during which these carryforwards may be applied against future taxes. Therefore, the Company may not be able to take full advantage of these carryforwards for federal or state income tax purposes. Interest and penalty charges, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits would be classified as income tax expense in the accompanying statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company has no accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions. In many cases, the Company’s uncertain tax positions are related to years that remain subject to examination by relevant tax authorities. Since the Company is in a loss carryforward position, it is generally subject to examination by the U.S. federal, state, and local income tax authorities for all tax years in which a loss carryforward is available. For all years through December 31, 2016, the Company generated research credits but has not conducted a study to document the qualified activities. This study may result in an adjustment to the Company’s research and development credit carryforwards; however, until a study is completed and any adjustment is known, no amounts are being presented as an uncertain tax position. A full valuation allowance has been provided against the Company’s research and development credits, and if an adjustment is required, this adjustment would be offset by an adjustment to the valuation allowance. Thus, there would be no impact to the balance sheets or statements of operations and comprehensive loss if an adjustment were required. |

Commitments | 15. Commitments The Company leased its former corporate headquarters under an operating lease that expired on November 1, 2015. On February 1, 2015, the Company’s option to extend the term of the lease for an additional three‑year period expired. The Company did not exercise its option to extend the term of the lease. On February 12, 2015, the Company entered into a lease for approximately 38,500 rentable square feet of office and laboratory space in Cambridge, Massachusetts, which the Company gained control over on June 15, 2015, and occupancy commenced in October 2015. The lease ends on October 31, 2022. The Company has an option to extend the lease for five additional years. The lease has a total commitment of $17.8 million over the seven year term. The Company has agreed to pay an initial annual base rent of approximately $2.3 million, which rises periodically until it reaches approximately $2.8 million. The Company is recording rent expense on a straight-line basis through the end of the lease term. The Company has recorded deferred rent on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016, accordingly. The lease provides the Company with an allowance for leasehold improvements of $4.3 million. The Company accounts for leasehold improvement incentives as a reduction to rent expense ratably over the lease term. The balance from the leasehold improvement incentives is included in lease incentive obligations on the balance sheets. The lease agreement required the Company to pay a security deposit of $1.3 million, which is recorded in restricted cash, included in long term assets, on the Company’s balance sheet. The future minimum lease payments at December 31, 2016, are as follows (in thousands):

Defined Contribution Benefit Plan | 17. Defined Contribution Benefit Plan The Company maintains a 401(k) plan for employees (the 401(k) Plan). The 401(k) Plan is intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Service Code of 1986, as amended, so that contributions to the 401(k) Plan by employees or by the Company, and the investment earnings thereon, are not taxable to the employees until withdrawn from the 401(k) Plan, and so that contributions by the Company, if any, will be deductible by the Company when made. Under the 401(k) Plan, employees may elect to reduce their current compensation by up to the statutorily prescribed annual limit and to have the amount of such reduction contributed to the 401(k) Plan. The 401(k) Plan permits the Company to make contributions up to the limits allowed by law on behalf of all eligible employees. Effective September 1, 2015, the Company instituted an employer match of 50% of eligible contributions up to 6% of employee contributions. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company contributed $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, to the 401(k) Plan. |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The audited consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) and Accounting Standards Update (ASU) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the rules and regulations of the SEC. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Blueprint Medicines Security Corporation, which is a Massachusetts subsidiary created to buy, sell and hold securities. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. In connection with preparing for its IPO, the Company effected a 1‑for‑5.5 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock. The reverse stock split became effective on April 10, 2015. All share and per share amounts in the financial statements and notes thereto have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to give effect to this reverse stock split, including reclassifying an amount equal to the reduction in par value of common stock to additional paid‑in capital. Upon the closing of the IPO in May 2015, all of the Company’s outstanding convertible preferred stock automatically converted into 15,467,479 shares of common stock, and warrants exercisable for convertible preferred stock automatically converted into warrants exercisable for 42,423 shares of common stock. On December 13, 2016, the Company closed its underwritten public offering of 5,750,000 shares. The significant increase in shares outstanding in the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 is expected to impact the year-over-year comparability of the Company’s net loss per share calculations. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management considers many factors in selecting appropriate financial accounting policies and in developing the estimates and assumptions that are used in the preparation of the financial statements. Management must apply significant judgment in this process. Management’s estimation process often may yield a range of potentially reasonable estimates and management must select an amount that falls within that range of reasonable estimates. Estimates are used in the following areas, among others: stock‑based compensation expense, including estimating the fair value of the Company’s common stock prior to the IPO; revenue recognition; the valuation of liability‑classified warrants prior to the IPO; accrued expenses; and income taxes. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Available-for-sale Investments | Available-for-Sale Investments The Company classifies marketable securities with a remaining maturity when purchased of greater than three months as available-for-sale. Marketable securities with a remaining maturity date greater than one year are classified as non-current. Available-for-sale securities are maintained by an investment manager and may consist of U.S. Treasury securities and U.S. government agency securities. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value with the unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of stockholders’ equity until realized. Any premium or discount arising at purchase is amortized and/or accreted to interest income and/or expense over the life of the instrument. Realized gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method and are included in other income (expense). If any adjustment to fair value reflects a decline in value of the investment, the Company considers all available evidence to evaluate the extent to which the decline is “other-than-temporary” and, if so, will mark the investment to market through a charge to the Company’s statement of operations and comprehensive loss. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Revenue recognition | Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue from license and collaboration agreements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (ASC 605). Accordingly, revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met:
Amounts received prior to satisfying the revenue recognition criteria are recognized as deferred revenue in the Company’s balance sheets. Amounts expected to be recognized as revenue within the 12 months following the balance sheet date are classified as deferred revenue, current portion. Amounts not expected to be recognized as revenue within the 12 months following the balance sheet date are classified as deferred revenue, net of current portion. The Company’s revenue is currently generated through its collaboration agreements with Alexion Pharma Holding (Alexion) and F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd and Hoffmann-La Roche Inc. (collectively, Roche) . The terms of these agreements contain multiple elements, or deliverables, including an exclusive license granted by the Company to Alexion and Roche to research, develop, manufacture and commercialize the licensed products and the compounds in the field in the territory, as well as research and development activities to be performed by the Company on behalf of Alexion and Roche related to the licensed product candidates. In addition, the terms of these agreements include payments to the Company of one or more of the following: a nonrefundable, upfront payment; contingent milestone payments related to specified pre-clinical milestones, development milestones and sales-based commercial milestones; fees for research and development services rendered; and royalties on commercial sales of licensed product candidates, if any. To date, the Company has received the upfront payments, payments for the achievement of certain pre-clinical milestones under the Alexion agreement and payments for certain research and development services. The Company is eligible to earn additional milestone payments under both agreements. The Company has not earned royalty revenue as a result of product sales. See Note 13 for additional information on this agreement. When evaluating multiple element arrangements, the Company considers whether the deliverables under the arrangement represent separate units of accounting. This evaluation requires subjective determinations and requires management to make judgments about the individual deliverables and whether such deliverables are separable from the other aspects of the contractual relationship. In determining the units of accounting, management evaluates certain criteria, including whether the deliverables have standalone value, based on the consideration of the relevant facts and circumstances for each arrangement. The consideration received is allocated among the separate units of accounting using the relative selling price method, and the applicable revenue recognition criteria are applied to each of the separate units. Deliverables are considered separate units of accounting provided that: (i) the delivered item(s) has value to the customer on a stand-alone basis and (ii) if the arrangement includes a general right of return relative to the delivered item(s), delivery or performance of the undelivered item(s) is considered probable and substantially in the control of the Company. In assessing whether an item has stand-alone value, the Company considers factors such as the research, manufacturing and commercialization capabilities of the collaboration partner and the availability of the associated expertise in the general marketplace. In addition, the Company considers whether the collaboration partner can use the deliverable(s) for their intended purpose without the receipt of the remaining element(s), whether the value of the deliverable is dependent on the undelivered item(s) and whether there are other vendors that can provide the undelivered element(s). The Company’s collaboration agreements with Alexion and Roche do not contain a general right of return relative to the delivered item(s). Arrangement consideration that is fixed or determinable is allocated among the separate units of accounting using the relative selling price method. Then, the applicable revenue recognition criteria in ASC 605-25 are applied to each of the separate units of accounting in determining the appropriate period and pattern of recognition. The Company determines the selling price of a unit of accounting following the hierarchy of evidence prescribed by ASC 605-25. Accordingly, the Company determines the estimated selling price for units of accounting within each arrangement using vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of selling price, if available, third-party evidence (TPE) of selling price if VSOE is not available, or best estimate of selling price (BESP) if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. The Company typically uses BESP to estimate the selling price, since it generally does not have VSOE or TPE of selling price for its units of accounting. Determining the BESP for a unit of accounting requires significant judgment. In developing the BESP for a unit of accounting, the Company considers applicable market conditions and relevant entity-specific factors, including factors that were contemplated in negotiating the agreement with the customer and estimated costs. The Company validates the BESP for units of accounting by evaluating whether changes in the key assumptions used to determine the BESP will have a significant effect on the allocation of arrangement consideration between multiple units of accounting. In the event that an element of a multiple element arrangement does not represent a separate unit of accounting, the Company recognizes revenue from the combined element over the period over which it expects to fulfill its performance obligations or as undelivered items are delivered, as appropriate, if all of the other revenue recognition criteria in ASC 605-25 are met. If the pattern of performance in which the service is provided to the customer can be determined and objectively measurable performance measures exist, then the Company recognizes revenue under the arrangement using the proportional performance method. If there is no discernible pattern of performance and/or objectively measurable performance measures do not exist, then the Company recognizes revenue under the arrangement on a straight-line basis over the period the Company is expected to complete its performance obligations. Revenue recognized is limited to the lesser of the cumulative amount of payments received or the cumulative amount of revenue earned, as determined using the straight-line method or proportional performance method, as applicable, as of the period ending date. The Company’s multiple-element revenue arrangements may include the following: Exclusive Licenses The deliverables under the Company’s collaboration agreements may include exclusive licenses to research, develop, manufacture and commercialize licensed products. To account for this element of an arrangement, management evaluates whether an exclusive license has stand-alone value from the undelivered elements based on the consideration of the relevant facts and circumstances of the arrangement, including the research and development capabilities of the collaboration partner. The Company may recognize the arrangement consideration allocated to licenses upon delivery of the license if facts and circumstances indicate that the license has stand-alone value from the undelivered elements, which generally include research and development services. The Company defers arrangement consideration allocated to licenses if facts and circumstances indicate that the delivered license does not have stand-alone value from the undelivered elements. When management believes a license does not have stand-alone value from the other deliverables to be provided in the arrangement, the Company recognizes revenue attributed to the license on a proportional basis over the Company’s contractual or estimated performance period, which is typically the term of the Company’s research and development obligations. If management cannot reasonably estimate when the Company’s performance obligation ends, then revenue is deferred until management can reasonably estimate when the performance obligation ends. The periods over which revenue should be recognized are subject to estimates by management and may change over the course of the research and development and licensing agreement. Such a change could have a material impact on the amount of revenue the Company records in future periods. Research and Development Services The deliverables under the Company’s collaboration agreements may include research and development services to be performed by the Company on behalf of the partner. Payments or reimbursements resulting from the Company’s research and development efforts are recognized as the services are performed and presented on a gross basis because the Company is the principal for such efforts, so long as there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection of the related amount is reasonably assured. Milestone Revenue The Company’s collaboration agreements may include contingent milestone payments related to specified pre-clinical milestones, development milestones and sales-based commercial milestones. At the inception of an arrangement that includes milestone payments, the Company evaluates whether each milestone is substantive and at risk to both parties on the basis of the contingent nature of the milestone. This evaluation includes an assessment of whether:
The Company evaluates factors such as the scientific, clinical, regulatory, commercial and other risks that must be overcome to achieve the respective milestone and the level of effort and investment required to achieve the respective milestone in making this assessment. There is considerable judgment involved in determining whether a milestone satisfies all of the criteria required to conclude that a milestone is substantive. Milestones that are not considered substantive are accounted for as license payments and recognized over the remaining period of performance from the date of achievement of the milestone. Milestones that are considered substantive will be recognized in their entirety upon successful accomplishment of the milestone with a cumulative catch up adjustments, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met. Royalty Revenue. The Company will recognize royalty revenue in the period of sale of the related product(s), based on the underlying contract terms, provided that the reported sales are reliably measurable and the Company has no remaining performance obligations, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Comprehensive Income (Loss) | Comprehensive Income (Loss) Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non‑owner sources. Other comprehensive income (loss) consisted of unrealized gains and losses on investments for the year ended December 31, 2016. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, comprehensive loss was equal to net loss. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Research and Development Costs | Research and Development Costs Expenditures relating to research and development are expensed in the period incurred. Research and development expenses consist of both internal and external costs associated with the development of the Company’s selective cancer therapies and building of its discovery platform. In certain circumstances, the Company is required to make nonrefundable advance payments to vendors for goods or services that will be received in the future for use in research and development activities. In such circumstances, the nonrefundable advance payments are deferred and capitalized, even when there is no alternative future use for the research and development, until related goods or services are provided. In circumstances where amounts have been paid in excess of costs incurred, the Company records a prepaid expense. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Property and Equipment, Net | Property and Equipment, Net Property and equipment consists of lab equipment, furniture and fixtures, computer equipment, software, and leasehold improvements, all of which is stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are recorded to expense as incurred, whereas major betterments are capitalized as additions to property and equipment. Depreciation is recognized over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight‑line method. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Impairment of Long Lived Assets | Impairment of Long‑Lived Assets The Company continually evaluates whether events or circumstances have occurred that indicate that the estimated remaining useful life of its long‑lived assets may warrant revision or that the carrying value of these assets may be impaired. The Company has not recognized any impairment charges through December 31, 2016. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Warrants | Warrants The Company accounts for warrant instruments that either conditionally or unconditionally obligate the issuer to transfer assets and liabilities regardless of the timing of the redemption feature or price, even though the underlying shares may be classified as permanent or temporary equity. These warrants are subject to revaluation at each balance sheet date, and any changes in fair value are recorded as a component of other income (expense), until the earlier of their exercise or expiration or the time the warrants no longer conditionally or unconditionally obligate the Company to transfer assets or liabilities, which occurred upon the IPO, at which time the warrant liability was reclassified to stockholders’ equity. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Stock-Based Compensation Expense | Stock‑Based Compensation Expense The Company expenses the fair value of employee stock awards net of estimated forfeitures on a straight‑line basis over the requisite service period, which generally is the vesting period. Compensation cost for restricted stock awards issued to employees is measured using the grant date intrinsic value of the award, net of estimated forfeitures, adjusted to reflect actual forfeitures. The Company estimates the fair value of the options granted to employees at the date of grant using the Black‑Scholes option‑pricing model that requires management to apply judgment and make estimates, including:
The amount of stock‑based compensation expense recognized during a period is based on the fair value of the portion of the awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The term “forfeitures” is distinct from “cancellations” or “expirations” and represents only the unvested portion of the surrendered option. The Company evaluates its forfeiture rate at each reporting period. Ultimately, the actual expense recognized over the vesting period will be for only those options that vest. Stock‑based awards issued to non‑employees, including directors for non‑board‑related services, are accounted for based on the fair value of such services received or of the intrinsic value of equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured. These stock‑based awards are revalued at each vesting date and period‑end. Stock‑based awards subject to service‑based vesting conditions are expensed on a straight‑line basis over the vesting period. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of the assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance against deferred tax assets is recorded if, based on the weight of the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions using a more‑likely‑than‑not threshold for recognizing and resolving uncertain tax positions. The evaluation of uncertain tax positions is based on factors including, but not limited to, changes in the law, the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in tax returns, the effective settlement of matters subject to audit, new audit activity, and changes in facts or circumstances related to a tax position. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Concentrations of Credit Risk and Off-Balance-Sheet Risk | Concentrations of Credit Risk and Off‑Balance‑Sheet Risk The Company has no significant off‑balance‑sheet risk such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts, or other foreign hedging arrangements. Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash, cash equivalents and investments in a custodian account at a high quality financial institution, and consequently, the Company believes that such funds are subject to minimal credit risk. Accounts receivable represents amounts due from the Company’s collaboration partner. The Company monitors economic conditions to identify facts or circumstances that may indicate that its accounts receivable is at risk of collection. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Segment and Geographic Information | Segment and Geographic Information Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer. The Company and the chief operating decision maker view the Company’s operations and manage its business as one operating segment. The Company operates only in the United States. |

Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605-25, Multiple-Element Arrangements and most industry-specific guidance. The new standard requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The update 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 obtain or fulfill a contract. This new guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those years) beginning January 1, 2018. Early adoption in 2017 is permitted. Companies have the option of applying this new guidance retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (the full retrospective method) or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying this update recognized at the date of initial application (the modified retrospective method). The Company currently anticipates adoption of the new standard effective January 1, 2018 under the modified retrospective method. The Company is in the process of determining the impact of the new guidance on its financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This new standard is intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date of issuance of the entity’s financial statements and to provide related footnote disclosures. The standard is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. The standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or footnote disclosures as of the December 31, 2016 adoption date, but may require additional disclosures in future periods.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which amends ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. The new standard identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, as well as certain classifications on the statement of cash flows. The new standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this standard is expected to impact the income tax footnote disclosures and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In November, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes—Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes(Topic 740). The new standard requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The adoption of this standard in the last quarter of 2016 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations as its net deferred tax assets have been fully offset by a valuation allowance. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 will change the way the Company recognizes its leased assets. ASU 2016-02 will require organizations that lease assets—referred to as "lessees"—to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities representing the rights and obligations created by those leases. ASU 2016-02 will also require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those years) beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the methods of adoption allowed by the new standard and the effect that adoption of the standard is expected to have on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. |

- Definition Cash includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the customer may deposit additional funds at any time and effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid Investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Short-term investments, exclusive of cash equivalents, generally consist of marketable securities intended to be sold within one year (or the normal operating cycle if longer) and may include trading securities, available-for-sale securities, or held-to-maturity securities (if maturing within one year), as applicable.
