how to remove all script word from string using existing regex

Question

In my java application, we are using existing regex as below:

Regex = </*|[^\w\p{L} !#$%&'+,./:=?@|-]|&#|^'|'$|\W'|'[^\w\s]|script:

The above regex removes the character from script tag i.e. <>() but I want to remove the whole script tag along with word "script".

Input String:

<script>alert("asdf")</script>

Output String :

scriptalertasdfscript

Expected Output String :

blank

Please help.
