Nutritional disorders in cancer patients, including lymphoproliferative neoplasms, occur with varying frequency. The primary aim of the study was to analyze the changes in the nutritional status of patients with lymphoproliferative neoplasms following first-line chemotherapy. 46 patients, with a median age of 62 years, participated in a prospective single-center study. Their demographic, biochemical and clinical features were analyzed. The study consisted of several stages that were conducted at two time points. P values &lt; 0.05 were considered statistically significant. The study included patients with multiple myeloma (48%), non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (28%) or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (24%). After the end of the first-line chemotherapy, a decrease in the concentration of albumin (p = 0.04), transferrin (p = 0.38) and total cholesterol (p = 0.76) were found. Statistically greater unintended weight loss occurred before treatment initiation (p &lt; 0.001). Moreover, a significant decrease in the mean values of the phase angle (p &lt; 0.01) was noted. Most patients before the oncological therapy did not show clinical or biochemical symptoms of malnutrition. However, after the treatment was completed, the parameters of the nutritional status showed its deterioration.
