Former President Joseph R. Biden's Stage 4 prostate cancer, which has metastasized to his bones, is a serious diagnosis. Prostate cancer specialists indicate that while the condition is incurable, recent advancements in research and treatment have significantly improved survival expectations for men with advanced prostate cancer. Notably, men diagnosed with this stage can still live for several years with appropriate medical intervention. Experts suggest that Biden's urinary symptoms likely led him to seek medical attention, resulting in the detection of the cancer through tests.
Life is measured in years now, not months, said Dr. Daniel W. Lin, a prostate cancer specialist at the University of Washington.
A man like Mr. Biden, in his 80s, could hopefully pass away from natural causes and not from prostate cancer, said Dr. Judd Moul.
