Former President's Cancer Spread to Bones, Yet Responds Positively to Hormonal Treatment Options
Former President of the United States, Joe Biden, has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that has metastasized to his bones, as announced by his personal office.

On Friday, health professionals officially diagnosed him with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Group 5), indicating a more severe progression of the disease.
