Study Description
Brief Summary
This study was a single-arm, open-label clinical study to assess dopamine transporter occupancy in the brain of patients with depression using 11C-CFT positron emission tomography (PET).

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Toludesvenlafaxine hydrochloride sustained-release tablets 40 mg/tablet, 80mg/tablet, 40 mg~160mg each time, once a day, for 42 days |
Drug: Toludesvenlafaxine hydrochloride sustained-release tablets
D1~D6, 40mg/ tablet, 1 tablet per time, once a day, D7~D10, 80mg/ tablet, 1 tablet per time, once a day, D11~D42, 80mg/ tablet, 2 tablets per time, once a day. For subjects who cannot tolerate 160mg, the dose may be reduced to 80mg/ dose once daily. After the number of subjects receiving 160mg/ dose reached 6, the remaining subjects received D11~D42, 80mg/ tablet, one tablet each time, once a day.
