Because you don't understand the very nature of cancer. Cancer, unlike other diseases, is a by-product of the ongoing changes in the DNA of all living things. The cost of evolution, is cancer. When the DNA alters, some mutations are safe or beneficial, other mutations, cause tumours and some others, malignant tumours (cancer).
