You can't. switch compares equality of the specified string to a list of values, just as if($string == $excepted_value) {} (see documentation for the switch control structure). It doesn't check whether a string matches a regex expression, so you can't check for a dynamic URL inside a switch structure.

Instead, to support dynamic URLs (i.e. with query parameters), try to use inbuilt features of PHP, for example $_GET for URL query parameters, $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] for the request URI, and regex expressions to extract specific parts of that URI.
