Maybe not directly, as in: Green tea has elements that resist cancer, but in a subtle way, such as: it makes your general health better, thus creating an environment where it would be more difficult for cancer to take place in the first place? Maybe green tea has elements that amplify parts of body that are supposed to resist development of bad tumours?
I am sorry. I am as far from doctor or biologist as humanly possible, so it is pure speculation on my part./quote]
That sounds to be spot on, as far as what the research leads people to believe. Regardless of the methodology, better health will always be a key factor in resistance to problems.
However, I did read about Lapacho.
It is a proven fact that it helps to fight cancer, not merely prevent it. The research was made in the USA. However, it is not possible to use in real life. For Lapacho to destroy cancer one have to drink so much of it that body develops negative side effects. I don't remember all of them, but one is vomiting. Curing one illness, developing others. Not helpful.

That was a similar result found using vitamin C to
'cure' a cold. In order for it to actually work, the dosage was so large that it had to be injected directly into the blood stream rather than swallowed, and the side effects were worse than the cold symptoms!
This is NOT to say that taking vitamin C doesn't help the body resist a cold.
