Been doing just that ... it's not really even a regex:

On the search & replace tab of bulk editing metadata -
Search Mode = Regular Expression
Search Field = Identifiers
Identifier Type = isbn
Search For + Replace With = leave these blank
Destination Field = your custom column


And to clear the isbn, as above but:
Search for = .
Destination Field = Identifiers
Identifier type = isbn (here it's not a drop down, but it still works)
