I'm not sure how one would do such research.
You would need to compare teams of equal skill level who were working on very similar software over quite a long period of time.
What would the benchmarks be? Number of defects in production code? Time to ship? Severity of defects? Time spent debugging?

Promotors of TDD argue that their personal intuition suffices, despite having little evidence to back their claims.
