Using RegEx to remove RTF formatting

I have tried this just to get out one of the common lines '\pard\plain\plain\fs24\par' using this syntax, that I think is right:

use [exoMashTrust-test]

select 
	sql#.RegEx_Replace(
	pati.THENOTES
	,'\pard\plain\plain\fs24\par'
	,''
	,1
	,1
	,null
	)

from
 PATIENT_INCIDENTS as pati

But I get this error:

Msg 6522, Level 16, State 1, Line 3
A .NET Framework error occurred during execution of user-defined routine or aggregate "RegEx_Replace": 
System.ArgumentException: parsing "\pard\plain\plain\fs24\par " - Malformed \p{X} character escape.

   at REGEX.Replace(SqlChars ExpressionToValidate, SqlString RegularExpression, SqlString Replacement, SqlInt32 Count, SqlInt32 StartAt, SqlString RegExOptionsList)
.

I have no idea what this means.
