Harvey Weinstein has been diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia, a form of bone marrow cancer, and is being treated while still in prison, according to multiple media reports.

Representatives for Weinstein haven’t confirmed the diagnosis, and in a statement provided to ABC, among others, they said, “Out of respect for Mr. Weinstein’s privacy, we will offer no further comment.”

Chronic myeloid leukemia involves the unregulated growth of myeloid cells in bone marrow, where blood cells form, which then attacks white blood cells.

According to NBC, which first broke the news of Weinstein’s condition, Weinstein is being treated at Riker’s Island prison in New York, where he is being held pending a retrial on rape charges set to begin in November.
