Former President Joe Biden is entering a new phase of treatment for the prostate cancer he was diagnosed with in May.
Biden is now undergoing radiation therapy, a spokesperson for the former president told Fox News on Saturday. Previously, he had been receiving routine scans, the spokesperson added.
« As part of a treatment plan for prostate cancer, President Biden is currently undergoing radiation therapy and hormone treatment », the spokesperson said.
Biden was diagnosed four months ago with an « aggressive form » of metastatic prostate cancer after health officials detected a prostate nodule following increasing urinary symptoms. His office said the disease, though aggressive, is hormone-sensitive, meaning it may be effectively managed.
