I'm using the npm package "searchable-flatlist". Search Textinput working smooth, but getting errors on entering some special characters like "<, /, (" in search Textinput. error:SyntaxError: Invalid regular expression

snippet:

<SearchableFlatlist
  data={this.state.classArraylist}
  extraData={this.state.classArraylist}
  renderItem={this.renderclassArraylist}
  keyExtractor={item => item.className}
  ItemSeparatorComponent={this.renderSeparator}
  type={SearchableFlatlist.INCLUDES}
  searchProperty={"className"}
  searchTerm={this.state.searchTerm}
  style={{ marginTop: 0, marginBottom: 10 }}
/>
