Remove part of the sring

Hi, I have below table, and I want to remove "pr.", "Tv_" from 2nd column. In my table some of the names (in 2nd column) contains _slot1,_slot5. So, I also want to remove if the name match "_slot"(whatever the it may like _slot1,_slot2, _slot5, etc). Please kindly some one help.

Many many Thanks.

Aside from the usual manipulations about working with tables, if you have a cell array of strings then

new_cell_string = regexprep(old_cell_string, {'pr\.', 'Tv_', '_slot.*'}, {'', '', ''});
