Medical technology in star wars?

Medical technology in star wars is undoubtedly very advanced, but are these things in the mythos?

1. A cure for cancer

2. Anti-agenic drugs

3. Brain reconstruction

4. Psychological rehabilitation of criminals?

Tumors are caused by cancer and in season six it's shown that they have the technology to just kinda take it out.

Think again.

In "The Last Man Standing: The Tale of Boba Fett" it is stated that after escaping the sarlacc, Boba Fett needed regular medical treatment to prevent himself developing cancer.

So to answer the OP, no, there is no cure for cancer in the Star Wars mythos.
