Marie Claire celebrity news: Patrick Swayze Rex Features

Patrick Swayze has denied reports he has ended treatment to fight against his pancreatic cancer.

Reports emerged yesterday that the star had been told by doctors there was nothing they could do to save him.

But his rep told People that he is carrying on with treatment.

'The reports are not true. Patrick is continuing his treatment,' said Annett Wolf.

Swayze, 56, was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last March.

Earlier this month, he had a minor setback and checked himself into hospital for pneumonia.

The actor – whose new show The Beast just aired in the US - has vowed to fight his cancer, saying: 'I am alive and plan on continuing to stay that way'.
