LOS ANGELES, Sep 04, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- XCR | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Xcorporeal, Inc. (Pink Sheets: XCRP) (the "Company" or "Xcorporeal") announced that, effective as of today, the Company's common stock commenced trading on the Pink Sheets Electronic OTC Market, an inter-dealer electronic quotation service for securities traded over-the-counter also known as the Pink Sheets, under the symbol "XCRP".

The Company intends to continue to make financial information available on a regular basis in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

In addition, effective as of today's date, pursuant to the terms of the letter received from NYSE Amex LLC (formerly American Stock Exchange, "Amex") on August 20, 2009, the Company's common stock has been suspended from trading on Amex. The Company may seek in the future to have its common stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board, but there can be no assurance that it will be successful in such efforts.

About Xcorporeal, Inc.

Xcorporeal is a medical device company developing an innovative extra-corporeal platform technology to be used in devices to replace the function of various human organs. The platform leads to three initial products: a Portable Artificial Kidney (PAK) for attended care Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT) for patients suffering from Acute Renal Failure, a PAK for home hemodialysis (XCR-6) for patients suffering from End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), and a Wearable Artificial Kidney (WAK) for continuous ambulatory hemodialysis for treatment of ESRD.

For the attended care market, Xcorporeal is developing a portable, multi-functional renal replacement device that will offer cost-effective therapy for those patients suffering from Acute Renal Failure, which causes a rapid decline in kidney function. In the U.S., the disease affects more than 200,000 patients annually with a mortality rate approaching 50%, according to a study published in the Clinical Journal of American Society of Nephrology in 2006. The Company has completed functional prototypes, which are currently undergoing bench testing.

The Company also plans to commercialize the XCR-6, a home hemodialysis device, for the chronic End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) market, comprised of patients in whom the kidneys have ceased to function. The Company's devices are intended to combine the best attributes of currently marketed home hemodialysis machines to offer patients convenient, durable and truly portable treatments at home. The Company believes its devices will provide a cost-effective alternative to current home treatment modalities, due to their ability to offer hemodialysis without the need for large quantities of dialysate fluid or purified water. The Company has also completed a demonstration prototype of the XCR-6.

The Company's WAK is also a device for the chronic treatment of ESRD. The Company has successfully demonstrated a prototype system that weighs less than 6 kg., is battery operated, and can be worn by an ambulatory patient. This miniature, wearable device is intended to enable continuous (up to 24 hours x 7 days per week) renal replacement therapy at home. Increasing dialysis time has previously been shown to reduce morbidity and improve quality of life of ESRD patients. The WAK has been featured in articles written in periodicals worldwide such as the Los Angeles Times, Le Figaro, Frankfurter Algemeiner and Corriere dela Sera. Scientific papers discussing the WAK have been published in several peer reviewed journals, including The Lancet and Kidney International.
