The goal of this clinical trial is to assess if a personalized regime of 177Lu-PSMA-617 (Lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan, also known as Pluvicto) is feasible and safe in a population of patients with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can the administered activity (cumulative or per-cycle) be increased in a majority of participants? 2. What is the incidence of some specific adverse reactions during the treatment? Researchers will compare participants receiving a personalized regime to participants receiving the standard fixed-activity regime of 177Lu-PSMA-617 to see if the activity can be safely increased through personalization based on renal dosimetry (i.e. the measure of how much radiation is actually delivered to the kidney). Participants will receive up to 6 treatments of 177Lu-PSMA-617 every 6 weeks and be regularly evaluated with imaging and laboratory tests, as well as with questionnaires.

RECRUITINGAdministered activity of 177Lu-PSMA-617
In GBq, cumulative and average per cycle.
Time frame: From first administration to the end of treatment (each cycle is 6 weeks, up to 6 cycles)
Number of participants with subacute adverse events of special interest (AESIs)
Subacute AESIs are: * treatment-related grade 3-4 thrombopenia persisting more than 12 weeks * treatment-related grade 3-4 neutropenia persisting more than 12 weeks * treatment-related creatinine elevation to \>2x baseline and \>ULN (upper limit of normal) persisting more than 12 weeks * treatment-related grade 4 febrile neutropenia * treatment-related grade 4 non-hematological toxicity
Time frame: From first administration to the end of treatment (each cycle is 6 weeks, up to 6 cycles)
Best biochemical response
Maximum percent decrease of serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) after first administration.
Time frame: From first administration until 52 weeks or the start of another anti-cancer treatment or death, whichever is earliest
PSA progression-free survival (PSA-PFS)
Time from first administration to an increase in PSA greater than 25%, and greater than 2 ng/ml, above nadir, confirmed at least 3 weeks later.
Time frame: From date of first administration until the date of PSA progression or of the start of another anti-cancer treatment or of death, whichever came first, assessed over a minimum of 60 months
Best radiological response rates
Percentage of participants achieving each RECIST 1.1 response category as their best response: complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), progressive disease (PD), overall response (i.e., CR or PR; a.k.a. overall response rate, ORR), disease control (i.e CR, PR or SD; a.k.a. disease control rate, DCR).
Time frame: From first administration to the end of treatment (each cycle is 6 weeks, up to 6 cycles)
Radiological progression-free survival (rPFS)
Time from first administration to the date of radiographic disease progression based on RECIST 1.1/PCWG3.
Time frame: From date of first administration until the date of radiological progression or of the start of another anti-cancer treatment or of death, whichever came first, assessed over a minimum of 60 months
Investigator-assessed overall PFS
Time from first administration to the earliest of clinical (worsening of a patient's clinical status attributed to disease progression), biochemical or radiological progression considering all data (scheduled and unscheduled) available to the investigator.
Time frame: From date of first administration until the date of investigator-assessed progression or of the start of another anti-cancer treatment or of death, whichever came first, assessed over a minimum of 60 months
Time to first symptomatic skeletal event (SSE)
Time to first Symptomatic Skeletal Event (SSE) is defined as the time from first administration to the date of the SSE. The SSE date is the date of first new symptomatic pathological bone fracture, spinal cord compression, tumor-related orthopedic surgical intervention, requirement for radiation therapy to relieve bone pain, or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first.
Time frame: From date of first administration until the date of first SSE or of the start of another anti-cancer treatment or of death, whichever came first, assessed over a minimum of 60 months
Overall survival (OS)
Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from the date of the first administration to the date of death due to any cause.
Time frame: From date of first administration until the date of death, assessed over a minimum of 60 months
Metabolic response on FDG-PET/CT
Metabolic response is defined as complete metabolic response (CMR, disappearance of all lesions on FDG PET), partial metabolic response (PMR, decrease of uptake by ≥30%), stable metabolic disease (SMD, variation of FDG uptake by \<30%), progressive metabolic disease (PMD, increase of FDG uptake by ≥30%)
Time frame: At baseline and at 12 weeks
Molecular response on PSMA-PET/CT
Molecular response is defined as the variation of molecular tumor volume (MTV) on PSMA-PET/CT
Time frame: At baseline and at the end of treatment (each cycle is 6 weeks, up to 6 consecutive cycles)
Best molecular response on quantitative 177Lu SPECT/CT during treatment
Best molecular response is defined as the maximum percent decrease of molecular tumor volume (MTV) at any time after post-treatment quantitative 177Lu SPECT/CT performed on the first cycle's Day 3, up to the post-treatment quantitative 177Lu SPECT/CT performed on the last cycle's Day 3
