Both are harmful. TB is an infectuous disease- meaning you catch it from someone else. It is caused by a mycobacterium, and usually infects the lungs. If not treated, can be fatal, but there are drugs that can cure it.
Cancer is generally not a contagious disease, and affects many different parts of the body, depending on what type of cancer. Some cancers can be treated with good results, others are harder to treat. There are too many different forms of cancer to give a simple answer- sorry.
