HOUSTON, Texas– Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that has metastasized to his bones.

The diagnosis was confirmed on May 18, following the discovery of a small nodule during a routine physical examination.

Medical evaluations indicated a high-grade form of the disease, classified with a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5), considered among the most aggressive types of prostate cancer.

At 82, Biden is the oldest living former U.S. president. His medical history includes previous health concerns, including the removal of a cancerous skin lesion in 2023 and treatment for brain aneurysms earlier in life.

Following the announcement, political leaders and public officials from across the country expressed their support. San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg offered well wishes, praising Biden’s strength and resilience.

Vice President Kamala Harris also expressed her support, describing Biden as a determined and resilient figure.

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers among men and can often be treated effectively if diagnosed early.

Biden’s diagnosis highlights the need for regular health screenings, particularly for individuals over the age of 50 or with a family history of the disease.

Throughout his career, Biden has been an advocate for cancer research and awareness, particularly following the death of his son Beau Biden from brain cancer in 2015.

Biden’s office has pledged to provide updates on his condition as appropriate. In the meantime, he continues to engage in public affairs and remains active in political discourse.
