Cancer is more than just cells growing fast. For a cell to be cancerous it needs to have other specific characteristics.
For example, cancer cells lose what is known as "contact inhibition". Cells can sense each other and if they sense overcrowding they'll stop their cell cycle. But cancer cells will grow regardless of cell population density.
That's not saying lab meat would be automatically safe, just that it wouldn't be cancer cells.
