Sumario:<!--HTML-->We present the first results from proton-lead collisions at sqrt(s_NN)=5.02 TeV obtained by the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC. They are based on the data obtained during the pilot p-Pb run in September 2012. The measurements include the pseudorapidity density, transverse momentum distribution and the nuclear modification factor of unidentified charged particles. Our results will be compared to previous p-p, A-A and d-A experimental results and to the available theoretical model predictions. Prospects for the long p-Pb run at the beginning of 2013 will be given.
