I want to emphasize that I would not rely on resveratrol alone. I would bring all weapons to bear on this, which definitely includes the other supplements I previously mentioned. Tanks are awesome weapons, but you do not enter a war with tanks alone.
This is a really good point. There are many other things that would be beneficial and synergistic with RES.
Another point Duke mentioned is that you need to get your body in a cancer unfriendly state.

Just as important as the supplements, DO NOT eat any dairy products. The protein casein is potentially a pro-cancerous. Also, stay clear of all starches (rice, bread, potato, pasta), and simple sugars. Cancer cells feed off of glucose 50 times more hungrily than normal cells, so do not feed them exactly what they need.

I have done extensive research on diet and while the optimal diet for life extension is still up for debate (yes it is CR but what combination of macro nutrients fats carbs proteins is still in question, I have a feeling its CR with low carb, adequate protein (not high protein) and high fat as fuel)....
Regardless
Cancer cells hate a low glucose environment, even more
they hate ketosis as their is very little fuel for them to use to grow with.
I would immediately start an ultra low carb paleo diet with lots of supplemental non starchy vegetables. Keeping protein levels at adequate but not too excessive may be ideal for life extension but in this case I wouldn't worry about that.
High fat, High protein (from meats and eggs, pure paleo so no dairy) with carbs only coming from non starchy vegetables, some berries and nuts.
just google ketosis and cancer, try google scholar as well
here are some tidbits though
