Background The Bypass Angioplasty Revascularization Investigation 2 Diabetes (BARI 2D) was undertaken to determine whether early revascularization intervention is superior to deferred intervention in the presence of aggressive medical therapy and whether antidiabetes regimens targeting insulin sensitivity are more or less effective than regimens targeting insulin provision in reducing cardiovascular events among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and stable coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods BARI 2D is an NIH-sponsored randomized clinical trial with a 2×2 factorial design. Between 2001 and 2005, 49 clinical sites in North America, South America and Europe randomized 2,368 patients. At baseline, the trial collected data on clinical history, symptoms and medications along with centralized evaluations of angiograms, electrocardiograms, and blood and urine specimens. Results The majority of BARI 2D patients were referred from the cardiac catheterization laboratory (54%) or cardiology clinic (27%). Of the randomized participants, 30% were women, 34% were minorities, 61% had angina, and 67% had multi-region CAD. Moreover, 29% had been treated with insulin, 58% had HbA1c > 7.0%, 41% LDL cholesterol ≥ 100 mg/dl, 52% blood pressure > 130/80 mmHg, and 56% BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2. Conclusions Baseline characteristics in BARI 2D are well-balanced between the randomized treatment groups, and the clinical profile of the study cohort is representative of the target population. As a result, the BARI 2D clinical trial is in an excellent position to evaluate alternative treatment approaches for diabetes and CAD.
