Former President Joe Biden is scaling back the promotional tour for his new memoir, saying his ongoing cancer treatment limits how many public appearances and interviews he can take on, according to NBC News.

Biden, 83, has continued some public appearances since his cancer diagnosis became public, but aides say his schedule is being managed carefully around his treatment. Specific details about which planned stops are being cut have not been released.
