Brief summary

The aim of the study is to compare the relative clinical outcomes between advanced medical therapy alone or advanced medical therapy combined with bariatric surgery \[either Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) or laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy\] in patients with type 2 diabetes and a body mass index (BMI) between 27 and 43 kg/m2. The study will examine the short and long term effects of each intervention on biochemical resolution of diabetes, diabetic complications, and end-organ damage.

Fasting Plasma Glucose

Fasting Plasma Glucose measured in mg/dL.

Time frame: 1 year

Population: Modified intent-to-treat population consists of all randomized patients that initiate treatment (surgery for those randomized to surgery and medical treatment for those randomized to medical treatment). All analyses conducted in the modified ITT population. Primary analysis also conducted in per protocol population as a sensitivity analysis.
