As reported by Raw Story which is a somewhat left of center web site. This report was a study by researchers at University of South Carolina and published in iScience.

This is a very preliminary story about injections in mice. Mice received an injection of MMJ and second injection of cancer causing chemical. A control group received an injection of the cancer causing chemical. The MMJ prevented the cancer from appearing in the MMJ treated mice, while the other group of mice developed the cancer

This seems a very preliminary study. Will the results carry over to humans? It seems hopeful however.
