Future of RAF & RN medicals

I heard on the news one day that a future cure for asthma and allergies such as peanuts was being developed in germany and would be available in four years time. Has anyone else heard of it? I have no idea in what shape and form it will be but I presume it will probably be something along the lines of a vaccination. I suprisingly suffer from both of these problems and it would be great if the RAF and RN would accept the usage of this medicine to gain eligibilty for aircrew roles. Would they ever accept a new medicine straight or close to straight away, or would they have to wait for longterm effects, even though the medicine would have gone through its own long term testing before being released to the public?

Greatfull for any replies...
