The post-war 8 year period of J.Stalin's autocracy in the Soviet Union was marked with numerous trials and cases against dissenters and otherwise-minded scientists. A touchstone and sample for a wide ideological campaign became a trial against professors N.G.Kliueva and G.I.Roskin, prepared by A.Zhdanov himself and carried out by the Court of Honor at the USSR Ministry of Health on June 5-7, 1947. The destinies of two scientists-physicians and the problem of cancer biotherapy, worked out by them, were sacrificed to political intolerance of the "leaders".
