The ‘aggressive form’ of prostate can.cer has been identified in former President Joe Biden, 82, according to a Sunday announcement from his office.

According to a statement announcing the discovery, the can.cer has gone to his bones and metastasised. The family is currently deliberating on available treatment choices.

The news was made just one week after it was reported that Biden’s prostate had a “small nodule” that required “further evaluation.”

“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms,” said a statement regarding the diagnosis.

“On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate can.cer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone,” it adds of the grave prognosis.

A ‘Gleason score’ is assigned to prostate tumours based on how the malignant cells appear in comparison to healthy ones. Biden’s cancer appears to be among the most aggressive, based on his score of 9.

His office noted that: “While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the can.cer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management.” 

Former President Joe Biden’s can.cer diagnosis was “saddened to hear,” according to President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.

“We wish Joe a fast and successful recovery,” Trump wrote in Truth Social on Sunday.

In addition to being elected as the oldest individual to hold the highest office in American history, Biden departed office as the country’s oldest sitting president.

Last weekend, according to his staff, the “small nodule” on his prostate was found during “a routine physical exam.”

Prostate problems are widespread among people in their advanced years. According to the American Cancer Society, men over 65 account for more than half of all prostate can.cer cases.

A hard lump or swelling that can appear anywhere on the body is called a nodule. Some may be benign and innocuous, while others may be linked to more serious health issues like infections or, in this case, can.cer.

In the end, concerns about the former president’s age, health, and suitability for office caused him to withdraw from his reelection campaign and hand the reins over to 60-year-old Vice President Kamala Harris.

Democratic Party leaders have begun to openly acknowledge that Biden was wrong to seek reelection in 2024. Some say that aides who were hiding Biden from the public and telling party members he was fit behind the scenes tricked them.

Biden’s vice president, Kamala Harris, reacted to his newest health revelation by saying, “Doug and I are saddened to learn of President Biden’s prostate can.cer diagnosis.” 

“We are keeping him, Dr. Biden, and their entire family in our hearts and prayers during this time. Joe is a fighter — and I know he will face this challenge with the same strength, resilience, and optimism that have always defined his life and leadership. We are hopeful for a full and speedy recovery.”

In 2022, Biden rekindled his Cancer Moonshot campaign, which he had initially been tasked with leading while he was vice president under Barack Obama.

By 2047, the project aimed to improve the lives of can.cer patients and reduce the cancer death rate by half.

For Biden, finding a solution to the can.cer issue was personal.

After being diagnosed with the most aggressive form of brain can.cer, glioblastoma multiforme, in 2013, his son Beau Biden passed away in 2015 at the age of 46. According to his father, Beau’s exposure to military burn pits during his time in Iraq caused the can.cer.

Prior to taking office, Biden underwent Mohs surgery to remove many non-melanoma skin can.cer spots and had a malignant tum.our removed from his chest in February 2023.

Biden was deemed ‘fit to serve’ by his physician after a regular medical at Walter Reed National Military Medical Centre in February 2024, when he was still president.

The most severe grade of prostate can.cer that a patient can be assigned is 9 (Grade Group 5). The serious diagnosis is further supported by the fact that cancer has spread to the former president’s bones.

According to the statement from Biden’s office, his can.cer seems to be hormone sensitive and may be properly treated with a variety of therapies.

Since testosterone can aid in the growth and metastasis of hormone-sensitive prostate can.cer, doctors and medical professionals have observed that inhibiting testosterone production is an effective treatment for this type of can.cer.

“The President and his family are reviewing treatment options with his physicians,” it states.

Biden started his media comeback earlier this month.

On May 8, he co-hosted an interview with his wife, former first lady Jill Biden, on The View.

To commemorate the anniversary of Victory Day, the former president also appeared on BBC for a lengthy pre-recorded interview.

However, Jake Tapper of CNN and Alex Thompson of Axios are writing a book that will only discuss Biden’s demise and the vast cover-up of his cognitive degeneration during his one term in office.

“Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again” will hit shelves later this week and details the extent of the cover-up.

According to the upcoming book, Biden’s decline towards the conclusion of his one-term was so bad that some of his aides began to wonder if he would require a wheelchair.

According to the authors, advisers discussed in private in 2023 and 2024 the likelihood that Biden might use a wheelchair in the event that he was reelected, and they were considering ways to conceal this information until after Election Day in November 2024.

Towards the conclusion of his presidency, Biden’s shuffle and tendency to trip and fall to the ground were some of the criticisms made by online users and even some medical experts.

On June 1, 2023, Biden stumbled and collapsed while on stage at a commencement speech at the US Air Force Academy in Colorado. He was helped back to his feet by a couple members of his Secret Service detail.

Biden’s severe health decline and spinal problems are reflected in the discussions around his wheelchair use, as is the lengths his White House team went to in order to hide it during a difficult reelection.
