It has been found to be ineffective:

Avoid with radiation:

Probably avoid with chemo or immunotherapy too

Your first reference was for cancer prevention.

There is a current trial of green tea with regard to reducing progression (NCT04597359). Clearly the sponsors ECOG-ACRIN Cancer Research Group consider it is worth a look at.
