Abstract excerpt
The recent identification of activating mutations in NOTCH1 in the majority of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias (T-ALLs) has brought major interest toward targeting the NOTCH signaling pathway in this disease. Small-molecule gamma-secretase inhibitors (GSIs), which block a critical proteolytic step required for NOTCH1 activation, can effectively block the activity of NOTCH1 mutant alleles. However, the...
