Despite increasing prevalence of HIV among U.S. Latinos, participation in HIV clinical trials is low. Barriers to HIV clinical trial participation in U.S. Latinos are not well understood. Using in-depth, semistructured interviews with HIV care providers serving HIV-positive Latinos and focus groups with HIV-positive Mexican-origin Latinos, we assessed cross-cultural barriers (e.g., stigma and linguistic) to HIV clinical trials in San Diego, California, bordering Mexico. Cross-cultural barriers were explored using grounded theory analytical techniques. Patient-provider concordance on the nature of HIV-related stigma, linguistic barriers, the impact of U.S.-Mexico border on Latino patients and participation in clinical trials were found. Providers described care access challenges faced by patients of Mexican-origin, particularly in light of immigration and U.S. border policy. HIV-related stigma and communication barriers among Latinos remain important obstacles to clinical trials participation and care access in the United States
