Former President Joe Biden is receiving radiation therapy and hormone treatment as he battles prostate cancer, according to multiple reports.
Biden, 82, is responding to treatment and doing well, CBS News reported. The treatment will last five weeks, and began in Philadelphia a few weeks ago, according to NBC News.
“As part of a treatment plan for prostate cancer, President Biden is currently undergoing radiation therapy and hormone treatment,” a spokesperson said to CBS News.
Biden was diagnosed with prostate cancer in May 2025, and underwent a procedure to remove skin cancer from his forehead in September.
President Donald Trump showed support for Biden following his cancer diagnosis, posting to social media that he and Melania wished the former president a “fast and successful recovery.”
Trump himself also underwent a comprehensive follow-up evaluation Friday at Walter Reed National Military Center. In addition to visiting troops there, he received preventative health screenings and immunizations ahead of his trip to Egypt to participate in the official signing of the Israel-Hamas peace deal.

Trump left his appointment demonstrating “excellent overall health” as he maintains “a demanding daily schedule without restriction.”
Joe Biden did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.
