Regex not working from prop

When I pass format as a prop it doesn't work. But when I pass it as a local value with the exact same regex is do work:
// This doesn't work
// props.format = '^(?=.*\\d).{8,}$'

<script setup>
const props = defineProps(['format', 'message', 'value']);

function checkValid(){
if (!props.format || !props.value) {
return true;
}

const regex = new RegExp(props.format);
console.log(regex.test(props.value))
return regex.test(props.value);
}
</script>
// This doesn't work
// props.format = '^(?=.*\\d).{8,}$'

<script setup>
const props = defineProps(['format', 'message', 'value']);

function checkValid(){
if (!props.format || !props.value) {
return true;
}

const regex = new RegExp(props.format);
console.log(regex.test(props.value))
return regex.test(props.value);
}
</script>
// This do work

<script setup>
const props = defineProps(['format', 'message', 'value']);

const example = '^(?=.*\\d).{8,}$';

function checkValid(){
if (!props.format || !props.value) {
return true;
}

const regex = new RegExp(example);
console.log(regex.test(props.value))
return regex.test(props.value);
}
</script>
// This do work

<script setup>
const props = defineProps(['format', 'message', 'value']);

const example = '^(?=.*\\d).{8,}$';

function checkValid(){
if (!props.format || !props.value) {
return true;
}

const regex = new RegExp(example);
console.log(regex.test(props.value))
return regex.test(props.value);
}
</script>

try use toRefs. Example:
const props = defineProps({
test:{
type: string,
default: "hello"
}
});

const {test} = toRefs(props);

console.log(test.value);
const props = defineProps({
test:{
type: string,
default: "hello"
}
});

const {test} = toRefs(props);

console.log(test.value);

Could you be a little more specific? I'm trying something like this but this doesn't work:
<script setup>
const props = defineProps(['format', 'message', 'value']);

const { test } = toRefs(props.format);

function checkValid(){
if (!props.format || !props.value || (props.value.length < 4)) {
return true;
}

const regex = new RegExp(test);
console.log(regex.test(props.value))
return regex.test(props.value);
}
</script>
<script setup>
const props = defineProps(['format', 'message', 'value']);

const { test } = toRefs(props.format);

function checkValid(){
if (!props.format || !props.value || (props.value.length < 4)) {
return true;
}

const regex = new RegExp(test);
console.log(regex.test(props.value))
return regex.test(props.value);
}
</script>
Alright so I got it working, but it still always return false...
<script setup>
const props = defineProps(['format', 'message', 'value']);

const { format } = toRefs(props);

function checkValid(){
if (!props.format || !props.value || (props.value.length < 4)) {
return true;
}

const regex = new RegExp(format.value);
console.log(regex.test(props.value))

return regex.test(props.value);
}
</script>
<script setup>
const props = defineProps(['format', 'message', 'value']);

const { format } = toRefs(props);

function checkValid(){
if (!props.format || !props.value || (props.value.length < 4)) {
return true;
}

const regex = new RegExp(format.value);
console.log(regex.test(props.value))

return regex.test(props.value);
}
</script>
