The binding affinity of the beta-cyclodextrin (β-CyD) derivatives with Doxorubicin (Dox) is evaluated by means of the 3D-RISM/KH theory combined with the molecular dynamics simulation in order to screen the compounds for suppressing a side-effect of the cancer drug. A protocol revised for the external and conformational entropies of the host-guest system is employed to calculate the binding free energy. It is found that the direct interactions of CyD with Dox and the desolvation free-energies of the both compounds largely cancel out to leave moderate contributions to the affinity, which are comparable to those from the entropies.
