English term

cancer immunoediting

English to Spanish Medical Medical: Health Care
Tumor Immunity
An important function of the immune system is to recognize and destroy malignant cells that arise throughout the body.
This has the secondary effect of selecting for tumor cells that are more resistant to detection and destruction by the immune system.
This combined process of guarding against tumor formation and selecting for more immune-resistant tumors is known as cancer immunoediting.

inmunoedición del cáncer/cancerosa

This a relatively new term at least in Spanish, but I do work regularly with cancer related papers and this is the accepted term so far at least for my Latin American clients.

See the google hits for "inmunoedición del cáncer"; they aren't many but you get hits form cancer journals in Spain, Aregntina, etc.
