| Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] |
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Certain footnotes and other financial information normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. In management’s opinion, these condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as our annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, considered necessary for the fair presentation. The operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, has been derived from our audited financial statements at that date but does not include all disclosures and financial information required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The information included in the quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022, which were included in our annual report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2023.
Liquidity and Going Concern
The Company has incurred losses since inception and as of March 31, 2023, the Company had working capital of approximately $6.3 million, an accumulated deficit of $97.8 million and cash and cash equivalents on hand of approximately $11.3 million. The Company’s net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was approximately $6.6 million. The Company expects to incur significant expenses and increased operating losses for the next several years. The Company expects its expenses to increase in connection with its ongoing activities to research, develop and commercialize its product candidates. The Company will need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability, and it may never do so.
The Company’s current cash on hand is not sufficient to satisfy its operating cash needs for the 12 months from the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company believes that it has adequate cash on hand to cover anticipated outlays through the majority of fiscal year 2023, but will need additional fundraising activities and cash on hand during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023. These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year after the date the financial statements are issued. Management’s plan to alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt include raising additional working capital through public or private equity or debt financings or other sources, which may include collaborations with third parties as well as disciplined cash spending. Adequate additional financing may not be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all. Should the Company be unable to raise sufficient additional capital, the Company may be required to undertake cost-cutting measures including delaying or discontinuing certain clinical activities. These factors among others create a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Use of estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods covered by the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates include, but are not limited to, depreciative and amortization useful lives, assumptions used to calculate the fair value of stock-based compensation, warrant liabilities, deferred tax assets, and related valuation allowances. Actual results could differ materially from such estimates under different assumptions or circumstances.
Concentration of credit risk and other risks and uncertainties
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash. Currently, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are (and as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were) held in demand deposit form at two financial institutions. Deposits in financial institutions may, from time to time, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash.
The Company is subject to all of the risks inherent in an early-stage company developing new pharmaceutical products. These risks include, but are not limited to, limited management resources, dependence upon medical acceptance of products in development, regulatory approvals, successful clinical trials, availability and willingness of patients to participate in human trials, and competition in the pharmaceutical industry. The Company’s operating results may be materially affected by the foregoing factors.
Impact of COVID-19
In response to the spread of COVID-19, the Company has taken temporary precautionary measures intended to help minimize the risk of the virus to its employees and community, including temporarily requiring employees to work remotely and suspending all non-essential travel for the Company’s employees.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company may experience disruptions that could adversely impact the Company’s business. The COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect clinical site initiation, patient recruitment and enrollment, patient dosing, distribution of drug to clinical sites and clinical trial monitoring for our clinical trials. The COVID-19 pandemic may also negatively affect the operations of the third-party contract research organizations that the Company intends to rely upon to assist it in conducting its clinical trials and the contract manufacturers who manufacture the Company’s drug candidates.
The Company is continuing to assess the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business and operations as of March 31, 2023. |

| Earnings Per Share [Text Block] |
Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as stock options, warrants to purchase common stock, and other convertible instruments unless the result of inclusion would be anti-dilutive. These securities have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per shares for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, because all such securities are anti-dilutive for all periods presented.
The following table summarizes the Company’s potentially dilutive securities, in common share equivalents, which have been excluded from the calculation of dilutive loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive:
The diluted loss per share computation equals basic loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 because the Company had a net loss and the impact of the assumed exercise of stock options and warrants would have been anti-dilutive.

| Warrants [Text Block] |
As of March 31, 2023, there were public warrants outstanding to purchase an aggregate of 6,325,000 shares of common stock, private warrants outstanding to purchase an aggregate of 3,915,997 shares of common stock, investor warrants outstanding to purchase an aggregate of 6,866,901 shares of common stock, private pre-funded warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,383,399 shares of common stock, and assumed warrants outstanding to purchase an aggregate of 120,456 shares of common stock.
2020 Business Combination
In connection with the closing of our Business Combination in 2020, our predecessor company, Tenzing, issued public warrants to purchase 6,325,000 shares and private placement warrants to purchase 556,313 shares.
Further, there were assumed warrants to purchase an aggregate of 126,268 shares of common stock, of which 5,812 expired during fiscal year 2022. These warrants were classified as equity as of March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022. The fair value of these warrants on the date of issuance was $1,279,182.
Each public warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. No public warrants will be exercisable for cash unless we have an effective and current registration statement covering the issuance of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the public warrants and a current prospectus relating to such shares of common stock.
We may call the public warrants for redemption, in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
The private warrants are substantially similar to the public warrants except such private warrants;
In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle either the public or the private warrants.
The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or a recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. The private warrants were classified as derivative liabilities pursuant to ASC 815 (see to Note 9).
2021 Public Offering
In connection with the Offering of Units, the Company issued Pre-Funded Warrants exercisable for 5,066,600 shares of common stock, and Investor Warrants exercisable for 6,900,000 shares of common stock.
During fiscal year 2021, 1,033,300 of Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised for $103 in proceeds, resulting in the issuance of 1,033,300 common shares. During fiscal year 2022, 4,033,300 Pre-Funded Warrants were exercised for $403 in proceeds, resulting in the issuance of 4,033,300 common shares. There were no 2021-issued Pre-Funded Warrants outstanding as of March 31, 2023.
During fiscal year 2022, 6,000 Investor Warrants were exercised for $18,563 in proceeds, resulting in the issuance of 4,500 shares of common shares. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, 6,334 Investor Warrants were exercised for $19,593 in proceeds, resulting in the issuance of 4,750 shares of common shares. As of March 31, 2023, there are Investor Warrants outstanding to purchase an aggregate of 6,866,901 shares of common stock.
2022 Registered Direct Offering and Private Placement
In connection with the September 2022 Offering, the Company issued to investors Private Placement Warrants to purchase up to 3,359,684 shares of common stock. The Private Placement Warrants were immediately exercisable upon issuance.
In a concurrent private placement, the Company issued Private Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,383,399 shares of common stock. The Private Pre-Funded Warrants were immediately exercisable.
No 2022 Private Pre-Funded Warrants or 2022 Private Placement Warrants issued during the September 2022 Offering have been exercised as of March 31, 2023.
The Company has determined that as the Pre-Funded Warrants and Investor Warrants were issued at fair value in a public offering of Units with no debt funding included in the offering, the Pre-Funded Warrants and Investor Warrants should be classified as equity.
The fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and Private Pre-Funded Warrants was determined utilizing a Black-Scholes model considering all relevant assumptions current at the date of issuance (i.e., Company share price of $2.20, exercise price of $2.40 for the Private Placement Warrants and $0.0001 for the Private Pre-Funded Warrants, term of 5 years, volatility of 111%, risk-free rate of 3.4%, and expected dividend rate of 0%). The grant date relative fair value of these warrants was estimated to be $5,712,592 on September 8, 2022 and are classified as equity.
The Company evaluated the Private Placement Warrants and the Private Pre-Funded Warrants in accordance with the guidance at ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that they should be classified as equity instruments, with no recurring fair value measurement required. The warrants are indexed to the Company’s common stock and are required to be settled through physical settlement or net share settlement, if exercised. Accordingly, the warrants were recorded at their grant date fair value with no subsequent remeasurement. |

Stock-Based Compensation Expense
The Company records stock-based compensation expense in connection with the amortization of the fair value of stock options granted to employees, non-employee consultants and non-employee directors. During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded stock-based compensation of $51,527 and $39,686 respectively. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had unrecognized stock-based compensation expense of $422,646, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.7 years. As of March 31, 2023, there are 0 and 2,600,063 shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan and 2020 Equity Incentive Plan, respectively.
Determining Fair Value
Valuation and Recognition – The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes pricing model utilizes the following assumptions:
Expected Term – Expected life of an option award is the average length of time over which the Company expects employees will exercise their options, which is based on historical experience with similar grants.
Expected Volatility - Expected volatility is based on the Company’s historical stock volatility data over the expected term of the awards.
Risk-Free Interest Rate - The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent expected term.
Dividend Yield – The Company has not paid a dividend and does not anticipate paying a dividend in the foreseeable future.
There were no options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.
Activity under the stock plans for the three months ended March 31, 2023, is as follows:

Clinical trials
Since 2010, the Company has entered into multiple clinical trial agreements with medical institutions in the United States, Europe and Asia for the purpose of enrolling patients into various clinical trials. The agreements are substantially similar by trial and include a detailed listing of the clinical trial services for which the Company will pay, the amount to be paid for each service, a set-up charge (if any), Investigational Review Board fees, contractual term, and other provisions. The clinical trial services provided by each site generally include the screening of prospective patients and, for those patients to be enrolled in the study, administration of the Company’s investigation drug according to the trial protocol, any required hospitalization, ancillary medical supplies, and 2-week patient follow-up. Further, each agreement requires the Company to indemnify each respective clinical site against any and all liability, loss, or damage it may suffer as a result of third-party claims; the Company maintains product liability insurance of not less than $10 million in conjunction with this indemnification. The agreements may be terminated upon 30 days’ written notice, subject to conditions of paying all liabilities incurred through the date of termination. Additionally, with each screened patient, the Company incurs expense with other entities engaged to provide independent review of patient medical records.
As part of the Company's agreement with one of its clinical research organizations, the Company is required to maintain a 7% upfront float for fees related to expenses incurred in clinical studies. When the float has depleted to 15% (i.e. 85% of the float has been used) the Company will receive an invoice to replenish the float up to 7% of the remaining estimated budget for the studies. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company paid approximately $0.9 million to replenish the float and expensed approximately $0.3 million. As of March 31, 2023, the Company has a remaining prepaid float balance of approximately $0.7 million.
Indemnification
From time to time, in its normal course of business, the Company may indemnify other parties, with whom it enters into contractual relationships, including lessors and parties to other transactions with the Company. The Company may agree to hold other parties harmless against specific losses, such as those that could arise from a breach of representation, covenant or third-party infringement claims. It may not be possible to determine the maximum potential amount of liability under such indemnification obligations due to the unique facts and circumstances that are likely to be involved in each particular claim and indemnification provision. Historically, there have been no such indemnification claims. The Company has also indemnified its directors and executive officers, to the extent legally permissible, against all liabilities reasonably incurred in connection with any action in which such individual may be involved by reason of such individual being or having been a director or executive officer.
Operating Leases
The Company adopted ASC 842, Leases, on January 1, 2019. The Company has elected to apply the short-term lease exception to leases of one year or less. Presently, the Company has a single twelve-month lease on its Corporate Office located at 19925 Stevens Creek Blvd., Suite 100, Cupertino, CA 95014. The monthly lease payment is approximately $1,447 and the lease was renewed in February 2022 and again on February 1, 2023, for another 12-month term.

| Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] |
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To increase the comparability of fair value measures, the following hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation methodologies used to measure fair value:
The determination of where assets and liabilities fall within this hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following is a listing of the Company’s warrant liabilities required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis and where they are classified within the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022:
The following table summarizes the changes in the fair value of the warrant liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):
The Company classified the private warrants pursuant to ASC 815 as derivative liabilities, as the warrants have terms which are modified upon any future transfer of ownership, with subsequent changes in their fair values to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements at each reporting date. The Company calculated the fair value of the private warrants as of March 31, 2023 as $556,313 using a Black-Scholes model. The key inputs used in the Black-Scholes calculation were the risk-free interest rate, expected volatility, expected life, exercise price and stock price. The risk-free interest rate was estimated to be 3.88%, the expected volatility was estimated to be 75.70%, and the expected life was estimated to be 2.71 years. The exercise price was $11.50, and the stock price $4.19.
The Company recorded a gain on remeasurement of warrant liabilities of $11,126 and $89,010 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) |

Mar. 31, 2023 | |
| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Basis of PresentationThe accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Certain footnotes and other financial information normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. In management’s opinion, these condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as our annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, considered necessary for the fair presentation. The operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023.The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, has been derived from our audited financial statements at that date but does not include all disclosures and financial information required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The information included in the quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022, which were included in our annual report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2023. |
| Going Concern [Policy Text Block] | Liquidity and Going ConcernThe Company has incurred losses since inception and as of March 31, 2023, the Company had working capital of approximately $6.3 million, an accumulated deficit of $97.8 million and cash and cash equivalents on hand of approximately $11.3 million. The Company’s net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was approximately $6.6 million. The Company expects to incur significant expenses and increased operating losses for the next several years. The Company expects its expenses to increase in connection with its ongoing activities to research, develop and commercialize its product candidates. The Company will need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability, and it may never do so.The Company’s current cash on hand is not sufficient to satisfy its operating cash needs for the 12 months from the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company believes that it has adequate cash on hand to cover anticipated outlays through the majority of fiscal year 2023, but will need additional fundraising activities and cash on hand during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023. These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year after the date the financial statements are issued. Management’s plan to alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt include raising additional working capital through public or private equity or debt financings or other sources, which may include collaborations with third parties as well as disciplined cash spending. Adequate additional financing may not be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all. Should the Company be unable to raise sufficient additional capital, the Company may be required to undertake cost-cutting measures including delaying or discontinuing certain clinical activities. These factors among others create a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. |
| Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use of estimatesThe preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods covered by the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates include, but are not limited to, depreciative and amortization useful lives, assumptions used to calculate the fair value of stock-based compensation, warrant liabilities, deferred tax assets, and related valuation allowances. Actual results could differ materially from such estimates under different assumptions or circumstances. |
| Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Concentration of credit risk and other risks and uncertaintiesFinancial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash. Currently, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are (and as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were) held in demand deposit form at two financial institutions. Deposits in financial institutions may, from time to time, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash.The Company is subject to all of the risks inherent in an early-stage company developing new pharmaceutical products. These risks include, but are not limited to, limited management resources, dependence upon medical acceptance of products in development, regulatory approvals, successful clinical trials, availability and willingness of patients to participate in human trials, and competition in the pharmaceutical industry. The Company’s operating results may be materially affected by the foregoing factors. |
| Impact of COVID-19 [Policy Text Block] | Impact of COVID-19In response to the spread of COVID-19, the Company has taken temporary precautionary measures intended to help minimize the risk of the virus to its employees and community, including temporarily requiring employees to work remotely and suspending all non-essential travel for the Company’s employees.As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company may experience disruptions that could adversely impact the Company’s business. The COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect clinical site initiation, patient recruitment and enrollment, patient dosing, distribution of drug to clinical sites and clinical trial monitoring for our clinical trials. The COVID-19 pandemic may also negatively affect the operations of the third-party contract research organizations that the Company intends to rely upon to assist it in conducting its clinical trials and the contract manufacturers who manufacture the Company’s drug candidates.The Company is continuing to assess the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business and operations as of March 31, 2023. |
