From the article summary:

tamoxifen caused a dramatic regression of tumors in animals with either high nighttime levels of melatonin during complete darkness or those receiving melatonin supplementation during dim light at night exposure.



Just as a note tamoxifen is already used for that purpose

And cancer is not sensitive to tamoxifen but rather to estrogen (which tamoxifen is an antagonist)
