1) How sophisticated is our understanding of cancer?
I think that our understanding of cancer is finally coming to conclusions: that cancer is the making up of not just one issue, but more than one. At least there is some acknowledgement that there isn't just one answer to a problem. When talking to cancer patients, I've noticed more and more changing their lifestyle all around; they're talking on many approaches to helping themselves stay healthy. I think that science has its place in cancer right now and they're doing all they can to find "a cure" and looking more and more at "cures".
2) How does a TCM approach differ?
TCM approaches cancer from a balanced perspective. There are at least two reasons for cancer, illness or anything to exist. Everything has a balance, there's an automatic two reasons right there! Also, herbs are a definite differential right there! I know that some western doctors suggest herbs to take, but they're just now noticing that most herbs they were suggesting don't do much since they aren't cold pressed. It's the ongoing balance of East and West, right?
3) Are our genes still being naturally shaped by natural selection?
Absolutely! All beings are shaped by natural selection, constantly. Evolution is never-ending.

I am also seeing people look at problems, like cancer, with an open eye and a willingness to change. Hooray for growth, change and transformation!
Cancer is evolving, just as we are. Fortunately as both move forward, we are at least, open to change, healing and various modalities to get us to better health. I agree with your thoughts and 'brownrabbits'!
