Of course we are talking about cancer here, but for healthy people I don't think the blood sugar levels during ketosis are ever considered dangerous. And even though you aren't eating much carbs, your blood sugar may never get low at all, because you aren't burning them very much either.
As for keto diets and cancer, there's been a lot of studies claiming all kinds of things. I have trouble trusting diet related studies, as they constantly contradict each other and probably have far too few subjects versus the number of variables, which they often can't control. But as for the theory, I think at least for particular cancers it is believed they need sugar to grow, so can be starved by a keto diet.
