No studies have shown this. There was a study in the 70's where rats were given large amounts of saccharin and some developed bladder cancer. However, these rats were predisposed to developing cancer. No studies have shown this.

What are effects from saccharin?
Saccharin was first categorized as a carcinogen, a substance causing cancer, in the 1960s, but it was in 1977 that the definitive study, that caused panic regarding the use of saccharin, was published. This study showed that male rats displayed the growth of cancerous tumors in the bladder, when they consumed saccharin. Banned in Canada, the US FDA also proposed a total ban on saccharin, but failed in the face of public pressure. The US Congress allowed people to buy saccharin as long as manufacturers packaged it with a warning that it was potentially hazardous to health. But this label was removed in 2000, when multiple subsequent studies showed that it was safe for human consumption. SO basically use at your own risk
