Until and unless there are research results to the contrary, this study seems to show that horse ATG should always be preferred over rabbit ATG when ATG is given as initial treatment for severe aplastic anemia. This study didn't cover patients with moderate aplastic anemia, who often "watch and wait" rather than undergo treatment.

They recommend that countries that use rabbit serum and haven't yet approved horse serum need to do so now.
