Duran Duran's Andy Taylor Beats Cancer: 'Asymptomatic' and Grateful

Duran Duran's Andy Taylor, who was previously classified as needing 'palliative, end of life care' due to his stage four metastatic prostate cancer, has revealed that he is now 'asymptomatic' after undergoing a round of pioneering treatment that specifically targets cancer cells. The treatment, which involves the administration of radioactive chemicals intravenously, has shown promising results for Andy. He plans to undergo five more rounds of the treatment, each six weeks apart. Despite the positive outlook, Andy recalled the low point of his diagnosis and the psychological impact it had on him. He also expressed his desire to be a 'working patient' and continue his music career.
