CorMedix to Present at National Kidney Foundation® 2016 Spring Clinical Meetings
Abstract to be Published in Peer-Reviewed American Journal of Kidney Diseases

BEDMINSTER, N.J., Jan. 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- CorMedix Inc. (NYSE MKT: CRMD), a pharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing therapeutic products for the prevention and treatment of infectious and inflammatory disease, announced today that an clinical abstract highlighting key data from the Company's landmark post-approval surveillance study has been accepted for publication in the peer-reviewed American Journal of Kidney Diseases, and will be presented as a poster during the National Kidney Foundation® 2016 Spring Clinical Meetings, held April 27May 1, 2016, in Boston, Massachusetts.

The Neutrolin® Usage Monitoring Program (NUMP) examined the use of CorMedix's commercialized product in Europe, Neutrolin, an anti-infective solution for the prevention of catheter-related blood infections and thrombosis, which are the major complications observed in patients undergoing hemodialysis.  The results to be published compare the reduced rates of these catheter-related complications with routine use of Neutrolin as a novel catheter lock solution versus historical benchmark rates.

"We are proud to continue gaining recognition by the global medical community for our novel anti-infective solution," said Randy Milby, Chief Executive Officer, CorMedix. "Publication of our clinical work in a peer-reviewed medical journal not only adds validation to our product, but also provides significant, broad exposure among potential Neutrolin users worldwide. We look forward to providing the full study analysis when our clinical poster is presented in the spring."

About Neutrolin
Neutrolin is a novel formulation of taurolidine, citrate and heparin 1000 units/ml that provides a combination preventative solution that decreases the threat of infection and thrombosis.  Neutrolin keeps catheters operating safely and efficiently by optimizing catheter blood flow, while minimizing catheter-related infection rates for oncology, hemodialysis, and intensive care patients.  To date, Neutrolin has no reported human resistance.  Neutrolin has CE mark approval for use in the European Union and CorMedix initiated a Phase 3 clinical program in the United States in December 2015. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has designated Neutrolin as a Qualified Infectious Disease Product (QIDP), which provides an additional five years of market exclusivity in addition to the five years granted for a New Chemical Entity.

Of note is the recent release of the end stage renal disease Prospective Payment System final rule from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), as it proposed an approach to pay for new drugs that suggests the agency is open to considering alternative reimbursement schemes for products that have been designated as priorities by the FDA under the GAIN Act or the QIDP Act. CorMedix will be working with CMS to discuss Neutrolin specifically, and hopes to position it favorably in light of its potential to reduce infections and lower healthcare system costs.
