Yeah, that's about right.
That being said, even if we cure everything else, we will still need to find a way to cure or prevent cancer, or it would still kill all of us eventually. Somehow curing cellular aging might lower the odds of getting cancer in any given year, but not eliminate it; younger people do sometimes get cancer.
I would say that finding a cure for cancer would be a necessary part of any biological longevity program.
