Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation [Abstract]
Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation	Note 1. Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the results of operations of Tyme Technologies, Inc. (“Tyme Tech”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries Tyme Inc. (“Tyme”) and Luminant Biosciences, LLC (“Luminant”) (collectively, the “Company”). Tyme Tech was incorporated in the State of Florida on November 22, 2011, to engage in the business of producing, marketing and selling an ultra-premium vodka product to retailers. Management determined to cease the ultra-premium vodka business and attempt to acquire other assets or business operations that would maximize shareholder value. On March 5, 2015, Tyme Tech consummated a reverse triangular merger with Tyme (the “Merger”). (See Reverse Triangular Merger below.) The Merger resulted in Tyme becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tyme Tech. Tyme is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of highly targeted cancer therapeutics with a broad range of oncology indications. Tyme was incorporated in Delaware in 2013 and its operations to date have been directed primarily toward developing business strategies, research and development activities and preparing for clinical trials for its product candidates. Tyme, and now the Company, has focused its research and development efforts on a proprietary platform technology for which it retains global intellectual property (IP) and commercial rights. The Company is currently formulating its regulatory and drug development program for its lead drug candidate, SM-88, and working towards the initiation of its first Phase II clinical trial. Subsequent to September 30, 2015, the Company's Investigational New Drug Application for its SM-88 drug candidate for breast cancer patients (the “IND”) was accepted by the United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”). The Company is also evaluating the expansion of its Phase II program to other types of cancer. Reverse Triangular Merger On March 5, 2015, Tyme Tech consummated a reverse triangular merger whereby a newly formed subsidiary formed specifically for the transaction merged with and into Tyme. The Merger resulted in Tyme becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tyme Tech and the stockholders of Tyme as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, receiving, in the aggregate, common stock of the Company equal to approximately 79% of the total number of shares of Company common stock outstanding immediately following such issuance to such former Tyme stockholders (34,000 shares of Company common stock for every one share of Tyme common stock outstanding as of the closing of the Merger). Contemporaneous with the closing of the Merger, among other matters, the Company completed a private placement offering (the “PPO”) of 2,716,000 shares of Company common stock (the "PPO Shares") for gross proceeds of $6,790,000 (of which, $4,264,000 was tendered in cash and the remaining subscription price paid by the delivery of a three-month promissory note in the principal amount of $2,500,000 (“PPO Note”). In addition, a Tyme convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $2,310,000 (the "Bridge Note") was converted into 2,310,000 shares (the “Bridge Note Shares”) of Company common stock. The foregoing aggregate 79% ownership of the post-Merger Company by the former Tyme stockholders was calculated giving effect to the issuances of Company common stock in the PPO, the conversion of the Bridge Note and surrender of stock for cancellation by certain stockholders of the Pre-Merger Company. The purchaser of the PPO Shares and party receiving the Bridge Shares upon conversion of the Bridge Note were granted certain registration rights with respect to such shares (such shares being collectively referred to as the PPO/Bridge Note Conversion Registrable Shares”). The PPO Note was originally secured by the escrow of 5,000,000 shares of Company common stock pursuant to a Subscription Note Shares Escrow Agreement, dated as of March 5, 2015 (the “Subscription Note Escrow Agreement”). As originally provided in the Subscription Note Escrow Agreement, to the extent that the PPO Note was not paid at or prior to its maturity date of June 5, 2015, the escrowed shares would be forfeited for cancellation at the rate of one share for every $0.50 of PPO Note principal not paid. The Company received a payment of $1,250,000 in June 2015 and the maturity date on the remaining principal amount of the PPO Note was extended to July 6, 2015 pursuant to an Omnibus Amendment, dated as of June 5, 2015 (the “First Omnibus Amendment”). The Company entered into a Second Omnibus Amendment as of July 23, 2015 (the “Second Omnibus Amendment”), pursuant to which the terms of certain agreements entered into in connection with the Merger were modified and amended. Under the Second Omnibus Amendment, (x) the Company agreed to the extension of the maturity date of the remaining $1,250,000 outstanding amount due under the PPO Note to a date five business days following the Company providing the maker of the PPO Note of written evidence that an Investigational New Drug Application for the Company's SM-88 drug candidate has been submitted by the Company to the FDA, (y) the holder of all of the PPO/Bridge Note Conversion Registrable Shares irrevocably waived any right to damages, including any liquidated damages, with respect to the date of filing or the effective date of the registration statement contemplated by a Registration Rights Agreement entered into in connection with the consummation of the Merger and PPO and (z) the amount of shares that the former-Tyme stockholders may include in such registration statement was increased to 15% of the total number of shares such stockholders received in connection with the Merger. (See Note 9. Stockholders' Equity - Subscription Receivable.). At the point of Merger and since inception, Tyme Tech was essentially a “public reporting shell” with no substantive business operations. As such, Tyme Tech had no revenues and operating profits that require separate identification. The Merger established a public forum for the Company. Subject to executing on the Company's goals, management envisages that the public forum may help the Company secure necessary future funding in the public markets as the Company further develops its business as a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical enterprise focused on the development and commercialization of highly targeted cancer therapeutics for humans with a broad range of oncology indications. The transaction costs associated with the Merger relate to professional fees incurred in respect of legal, accounting and audit. All such transaction costs total approximately $1,000,000 and are included in general and administrative expenses. For accounting purposes the acquisition of Tyme by Tyme Tech was considered a reverse acquisition, an acquisition transaction where the acquired company, Tyme, is considered the acquirer for accounting purposes, notwithstanding the form of the transaction. The primary reason the transaction was treated as a purchase by Tyme rather than a purchase by Tyme Tech was because Tyme Tech was a public reporting shell company with limited operations and Tyme's stockholders gained majority control of the outstanding voting power of the Company's equity securities through their collective ownership of a majority of the outstanding shares of Company common stock. Consequently, reverse acquisition accounting has been applied to the transaction. In conjunction with the reverse acquisition, Tyme Tech changed its fiscal year-end from November 30 to December 31, the historical fiscal year-end of Tyme. Assets, liabilities and equity of the Company continue to be that of the operating company, Tyme. No additional goodwill or intangible assets were recognized in conjunction with the completion of the Merger. The capital structure, including the number and type of shares issued, appearing in the consolidated balance sheets for the periods presented, reflects that of the legal parent, Tyme Tech, including the shares issued to effect the reverse acquisition after the Merger and the capital structure of Tyme modified by the 34,000-for-1 exchange ratio in the Merger for the periods prior to the consummation of the Merger. (See Note 9. Stockholders' Equity.) The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company at September 30, 2015 and 2014 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) for interim financial statements, instructions to the SEC's Form 10-Q and the SEC's Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Tyme's financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 8-K/A (Amendment No. 1) filed with the SEC on April 16, 2015 (the “Merger Form 8-K”). In management's opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation to make the Company's financial statements not misleading have been included. The results of operations for the periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. The December 31, 2014 balance sheet has been derived from the audited financial statements of Tyme included in the Merger Form 8-K. Going Concern The Company has incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception (July 26, 2013) and has an accumulated deficit of approximately $13,841,000 as of September 30, 2015 and $4,173,000 as of December 31, 2014. The Company anticipates incurring additional losses until such time, if ever, that it can generate significant revenues from its products currently in development. The Company's primary sources of liquidity to date have been the issuance of common stock, convertible promissory notes and contributed capital by its founders. Substantial additional financing will be needed by the Company to fund its operations and to seek applicable FDA and foreign governmental authorization to commercially market its product candidates. There is no assurance that such financing will be available when needed or on acceptable terms. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Management is evaluating different strategies to obtain the required additional funding for future operations. These strategies may include, but are not limited to: additional funding from current or new investors, officers and directors; borrowings of debt and/or a public offering of the Company's equity or debt securities. There can be no assurance that any of these future-funding efforts will be successful. The Company is subject to those risks associated with any specialty pharmaceutical company that has substantial expenditures for research and development. There can be no assurance that the Company's research and development projects will be successful, that products developed will obtain necessary regulatory approval or that any approved product will be commercially viable. In addition, the Company operates in an environment of rapid technological change and is largely dependent on the services of its employees and consultants, as well as third party contractors.
