Joe Biden Diagnosed With ‘Aggressive’ and Spreading Cancer

Former President Joe Biden was diagnosed with a “more aggressive form” of prostate cancer that has spread to his bones, his office announced Sunday.

Biden, 82, was seen by a doctor last week over a new prostate nodule that was found after he experienced increasing urinary symptoms, according to a statement.

“On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone,” the statement read. “While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management.”
