Ephrin type-B receptor 4 (EPHB4), expressed in tumors including rhabdomyosarcoma, is a suitable target for chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells. Ligand-independent activation of EPHB4 causes cell proliferation and malignant transformation in rhabdomyosarcoma, whereas ligand-dependent stimulation of EPHB4 induces apoptosis in rhabdomyosarcoma. Therefore, we hypothesized that ligand-based, EPHB4-specific CAR-T cells may kill rhabdomyosarcoma cells without stimulating downstream cell proliferation mechanisms. We developed novel CAR-T cells by targeting EPHB4 via EPHRIN B2, a natural ligand of EPHB4. The generation of EPHB4-CAR-T cells via piggyBac (PB) transposon-based gene transfer resulted in sufficient T cell expansion and CAR positivity (78.5% ± 5.9%). PB-EPHB4-CAR-T cells displayed a dominant stem cell memory fraction (59.4% ± 7.2%) as well as low PD-1 expression (0.60% ± 0.21%) after 14 days of expansion. The PB-EPHB4-CAR-T cells inhibited EPHB4-positive tumor cells without activating cell proliferation downstream of EPHB4, even after multiple tumor re-challenges and suppressed tumor growth in xenograft-bearing mice. Therefore, PB-EPHB4-CAR-T cells possess a memory-rich fraction without early T cell exhaustion and show potential as promising therapeutic agents for treating rhabdomyosarcoma and other EPHB4-positive tumors. piggyBac transposon-mediated CAR-T cell therapy targeting EPHB4 exhibited sufficient CAR positivity, stable CAR expression, a favorable phenotype, and strong antitumor efficacy against EPHB4-positive tumors and would be promising for the treatment of malignant rhabdomyosarcomas.
