Representative evidence begins with explicit protocol decisions.

EMA plans a women’s-health regulatory roadmap by the end of 2026, following its September workshop. Priorities include representation in trials and sex-disaggregated evidence.

Status: policy announcement, not effective guidance. The roadmap has not yet been published. No consultation deadline is stated.

Tenvia perspective: keep population assumptions and evidence gaps visible. This announcement alone does not establish a new protocol requirement or a new Tenvia capability.
