Specifically, the invention relates to doublestranded nucleic acid molecules, including small nucleic acid molecules such as short interfering nucleic acid (siNA), short interfering RNA (siRNA), double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), micro-RNA (miRNA), and short hairpin RNA (shRNA) molecules, that are capable of mediating or that mediate RNA interference (RNAi) against IDH 1 or mutant IDH 1 gene expression.
