Compound filtering or selection

Requirement is here below and appreciate anyones help on this.

We have page level filter on Items and end user wants to select multiple Items with different patterns using * symbol with some statring digits/alphabets.

In the application, there appears to be only basic and advanced filtering. we would like to use compound filtering,  like following (e.g.,
(GA-75-433*|BC-26-953*|WVW-92-925*|EC-17-974*|B-45-4246*). If something like this can be done in Power BI please throw your inputs/suggestion and it would be great/thankful.

Users are not accepting adavanced filtering in Power BI and they need multiple Items to be selected at a time/single shot.

Thank you Amit for your time and appreciate your help!

Text filter visual can be searched with only one pattern at a time and our requirement is for multiple patterns in a single shot(Sinlge or one time search).

Ex:

Item starts with ABC%, BBC%, XYZ% (some times contains %ABC%,%BBC%').
