Apart of prepending the / with a backslash (as it was stated in a comment to your post), another hint: As you want only to delete the matched string, the capturing group here is not needed.

So change your code to:

url = url.replace(/p\/[0-9]+/, '');

Or even shorter option:

url = url.replace(/p\/\d+/, '');
