License Agreements [Abstract]
License Agreements	8. License agreements Trace License Agreement In March 2024, the Company entered into an exclusive license agreement with Trace Neuroscience, Inc., or Trace, pursuant to which the Company granted an exclusive worldwide license to a discovery research program targeting UNC13A for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or the Trace License Agreement. As consideration for the licensed rights and the transfer of know-how and materials, the Company received an upfront payment of $15.0 million in April 2024. Thereafter, the Company is entitled to potential subsequent payments of up to an aggregate of $80.0 million based on development and regulatory milestones and up to an aggregate of $250.0 million based on sales milestones. The Company is also entitled to tiered royalties ranging from percentages in the low single-digits to sub-teens on net sales of any licensed product if successfully commercialized. The Company assessed the Trace License Agreement in accordance with ASC 606 and concluded that it was a contract with a customer. The Company determined that there is one performance obligation relating to the license to the UNC13A discovery program, including the underlying know-how and certain related materials, and that the transaction price consisted of the $15.0 million non-refundable upfront cash payment. The potential future development and regulatory milestones represent variable consideration and were constrained, as it was concluded that it was not probable that a significant reversal in cumulative revenue recognized will not occur and therefore not included in the transaction price as of December 31, 2025. Potential sales milestones and royalties on net product sales will be recognized in the same period that the underlying net product sales occur as they were determined to relate to the license. The $15.0 million transaction price was recorded as license revenue in the statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income during the year ended December 31, 2024 at the point in time when control of the license and related know-how was transferred to Trace.

As consideration for the licensed rights and the transfer of know-how and materials, the Company received an upfront payment of $150.0 million in May 2024 upon the effectiveness of the Shionogi License Agreement. The Shionogi License Agreement also requires that Shionogi pay the Company up to $275.0 million in the aggregate in milestone payments upon the completion of certain clinical and regulatory milestones and up to $330.0 million in the aggregate in milestone payments if certain sales milestones are achieved. The Shionogi License Agreement also requires that Shionogi pay the Company tiered royalties ranging from percentages in the low double-digits to twenty on net sales of licensed products, subject to certain deductions. See Note 16, Subsequent events, for further discussion of achievement of the first clinical development milestone under the Shionogi License Agreement.

The Company determined that there is one performance obligation relating to the license to the MZE001 program, including the underlying know-how and certain related materials, and that the transaction price consisted of the $150.0 million non-refundable upfront cash payment. The potential clinical and regulatory milestones represent variable consideration and were constrained as it was concluded that it was not probable that a significant reversal in cumulative revenue recognized will not occur and therefore not included in the transaction price as of December 31, 2025.
