You haven't mentioned if the ending numbers have a patterned to them.
If they are always 10 digits (and the starting number is always 14 digits),
you could use this regexp:
/\d{14}$word\d{10}/
But if this is the case, it would be much better to use substr() to extract
the interesting stuff (Hello \ Hello2Uback) from within the surrounding BS.
