You can use

 var out = input_string.replace(/{[^}]*}/,'')

If you want to remove more than one occurrence, use

 var out = input_string.replace(/{[^}]*}/g,'')

To remove things between /* and */ , this one should work :

 var out = input_string.replace(/(?!<\")\/\*[^\*]+\*\/(?!\")/g,'')

let  regex = /<([^>]+)>/g;
      let match;
      let result = {}
      while ((match = regex.exec(content))){
        if(match && match[0] && match[1])
        result[match[0]] = match[1];
      }
      if(result && Object.keys(result).length){
        Object.entries(result).forEach(([key, value]) => {
          if(content.includes(key)){
            content = content.replace(key, value);
          }
        })
      }
