Hi:
According to The Herb Book by John Lust
Mistletoe (Phoradendron flavescens)
Common Names: American mistletoe, birdlime, golden bough.
Medicinal Part:  Leaves
Preparation and Dosage: Do not use without medical supervision
Nothing mentioned in his write up about cancer, but in Thorne's Guide to
Herbal extracts under Golden Bough he mentions marked anti-tumor activity
for cancer.  Hope this info is helpful.
