Pay vs Performance Disclosure [Table] |  |  |  |
Pay vs Performance [Table Text Block] | Pay Versus Performance As required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act, and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship between executive “compensation actually paid” and certain financial performance of the Company. For further information concerning the Company’s pay-for-performance philosophy and how the Company aligns executive compensation with the Company’s performance, refer to the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section above.

(5) | Total Stockholder Return (TSR) measures the change in a $100 investment in our Common Stock based on its closing price of $3.45 on December 31, 2019 and its year-end closing price thereafter. TSR is calculated by dividing (a) the difference between the share price of Common Stock at the end of each fiscal year shown and the beginning of the measurement period by (b) the share price of Common Stock at the beginning of the measurement period. The beginning of the measurement period for each applicable year is December 31, 2019.
(6) | The peer group used for this purpose is the CRSP Total Return Index for Nasdaq Pharmaceutical Stocks.
(7) | The dollar amounts reported represent the amount of net loss reflected in the Company’s audited financial statements for the applicable year.
(8) | Item 402(v)(2)(vi) of Regulation S-K requires that we designate a “Company-Selected Measure,” which, in our assessment, represents the most important financial performance measure (that is not otherwise required to be disclosed in the “Pay Versus Performance” table) used to link “compensation actually paid” to our NEOs, for the most recently completed fiscal year, to Company performance. For these purposes, we have selected ORLADEYO sales. The numbers in this column represent product sales of ORLADEYO and do not include royalty revenue from sales of ORLADEYO in Japan by our collaborative partner, Torii Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. ORLADEYO is an oral, once-daily therapy discovered and developed by us for the prevention of hereditary angioedema attacks. It was first approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in December 2020, and we began shipping it to patients with a prescription in the United States that same month.

Tabular List [Table Text Block] | Performance Measures As disclosed above under “Description of Certain Relationships between Information Presented in the Pay Versus Performance Table,” the Company uses several performance measures to align executive compensation with Company performance, not all of which are presented in the “Pay Versus Performance” table. These performance measures include the pre-established corporate objectives for 2022, as described in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section, and reflect the Company’s variable pay-for-performance philosophy. As a growing company that engages heavily in research and development, the majority of our corporate objectives were not “financial performance measures,” as defined by SEC rules. However, they did include one financial performance measure for ORLADEYO sales. Accordingly, the most important financial performance measure(s) used by the Company to link executive “compensation actually paid” to the Company’s NEOs, for the most recently completed fiscal year, to the Company’s performance is as follows:
• | ORLADEYO sales.
In addition to our financial performance measures, the Company views stock price as a key driver of value for all of our equity awards and, in particular, the stock options, which have no value unless the stock price appreciates from the date of grant. |  |  |

Additional 402(v) Disclosure [Text Block] | Description of Certain Relationships between Information Presented in the Pay Versus Performance Table As described in more detail in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section above, the Company’s executive compensation program reflects a variable-pay-for-performance philosophy. It is based on market best practices and is designed to ensure that it is appropriately risk-based and competitive with similar companies in our industry. The Company’s primary objectives for our executive compensation program are described on page 29 of the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” and the pre-established corporate objectives used to determine the variable component of executive compensation for 2022 (i.e., cash bonus under the AIP and 2022 long-term equity grants) are described on page 33. While the Company uses several performance measures to align executive compensation with Company performance, not all of those Company measures are presented in the “Pay Versus Performance” table above. Further, not all of the Company’s performance measures are “financial performance measures” as defined above in note 8 to the “Pay Versus Performance” table. For example, as a growing commercial-stage biotechnology company that discovers and commercializes novel, oral, small-molecule medicines, some of our performance measures relate to developments in the Company’s product pipeline and to building a robust and adaptable organization. The Company generally seeks to incentivize long-term performance of the Company as a whole and, therefore, does not specifically align the Company’s performance measures with “compensation actually paid” (as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K) for a particular year, which can be impacted in large part by changes in stock price. |  |  |
