There's not actually one disease called "cancer". Cancer is just the catch-all term for a large set of disorders where cells grow at an uncontrolled rate. Such a disorder can develop in different ways, for different reasons, in different cells, at different times, etc. Honeypots only work when there is consistent attack pattern to detect, and a means to mitigate that attack. But with cancer, getting a tumor to grow in one kind of cell will not prevent a different kind of cancer from developing in a different kind of cell.
