what about declare a bool value

bool _executeFuture=true;

then

Future.delayed(Duration(seconds: 10),(){
if(_executeFuture){
  setState(() {
    //some method calling
  });
}
});

Now whenever you want to cancel Future just use

_executeFuture=false;

Also, You can use CancelableOperation from https://pub.dartlang.org/packages/async
