Hypothetical dilemma

Let’s say hypothetically you have a hypothesis on how to stop cancer metastasis in body fluids. Obviously if it did in fact work it’d be a huge discovery which is a motivating factor. But you are also concerned about your own inexperience in the field and wish to avoid the DK effect. But then again the nature of the disease is such that you fear the longer you wait to bring this hypothesis up (when more credentialed and experienced) the more people that will pass away having not been treated if the hypothesis was in fact correct? What do?
