From HandWiki
Vicasinabin (RG7774) is a potent cannabinoid agonist which is highly selective for the CB2 receptor subtype. It was developed by Roche as a potential agent for the treatment of diabetic retinopathy. It reached Phase II human clinical trials but was discontinued for lack of efficacy, although it continues to be used for scientific research.[1][2]
