Corals (cnidaria) can get cancer but sponges (porifera) lack the higher tissue organization required for true cancers to form.

They contain a potent mitotic arrester that probably helps them maintain their shape. They lack the kind of tissue differentiation that would allow for one cell line to parasitize others and be cancerous.

No evidence exists for porifera or choanoflagellates developing cancer. However fungi apparently can develop a condition very similar to cancer that can also kill neighboring fungi, I just learned that.
