Overview

  • A spokeswoman confirmed he finished a several‑week course Monday at Penn Medicine Radiation Oncology in Philadelphia.
  • Ashley Biden shared video of him ringing the bell to mark the end of this phase of care, along with family photos from the clinic.
  • Officials have not said whether he will receive additional radiation or other therapies, pending follow‑up assessments.
  • His regimen includes ongoing hormone therapy, and his office described the cancer in May as Gleason 9 with metastases to bone and hormone‑sensitive.
  • He also had Mohs surgery in September to remove skin cancer lesions, and a spokesperson says he is doing well.
