We observed 2 cases of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) occurring in HIV-negative patients during treatment with dose-dense chemotherapy with doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide (AC) followed by paclitaxel (T). These represent the first case reports of PCP occurring during dose-dense chemotherapy for breast cancer. Because lymphocyte depletion is thought to predispose patients to PCP, we explored whether the shortened intervals between cycles during dose-dense chemotherapy might place patients at risk for lymphocyte depletion and thereby a potentially increased risk of opportunistic infection.
