The present invention further provides methods of using agents that inhibit Notch1 activity for treating cancer. Also described are methods of treating hematologic cancers comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a binding agent or antibody of the present invention to a subject having a hematologic cancer such as T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia.
