Biden diagnosed with aggressive form of prostate cancer

Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer, with metastasis to the bone, according to a statement from his personal office Sunday.

Doctors diagnosed Biden last week with a prostate nodule after he experienced increasing urinary symptoms. By Friday, they diagnosed him with cancer.

Biden’s office said the cancer “appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management.”

A spokesperson said in a statement that Biden and his family are reviewing treatment options with his physicians.
