Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Selecta (RUS), LLC, or Selecta (RUS), a Russian limited liability corporation, Selecta Biosciences Security Corporation, a Massachusetts securities corporation which the Company dissolved in December 2024, and Cartesian Bio, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which is a variable interest entity for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s management considers many factors in selecting appropriate financial accounting policies and controls, and bases its estimates on historical experience and other market-specific or other relevant assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management used significant estimates in the following areas, among others: fair value of the intangible assets acquired in connection with the Merger, fair value of the CVRs, deferred income taxes, revenue recognition, accrued research and development expenses, stock-based compensation expense, fair value of the liability-classified warrants, and impairment of long-lived assets. The Company assesses the above estimates on an ongoing basis; however, actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Segment Information Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate and discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or the CODM, for the purposes of assessing performance and allocating resources. The Company views its operations and manages its business in one operating segment, which prior to the Merger related to the research and development of nanoparticle immunomodulatory drugs for the treatment and prevention of human diseases and subsequent to the Merger relates to the research and development of cell therapy product candidates. The Company’s CODM function is fulfilled by its Chief Executive Officer. The CODM function assesses performance for the segment and decides how to allocate resources based on consolidated net loss that is also reported on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The CODM function uses net loss to monitor budget versus actual results to assess performance of the segment. Segment assets are the same as total assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. All long-lived assets are located in the United States. Long-lived assets consist of property and equipment, net, and operating lease right-of-use assets.
