This regular expression search for the first opening bracket `(`  
then any character until a closing bracket `)` which has to be at the end `$`  
to be matched.  
If you replace it with nothing, this results in removing the matching characters between and including the brackets.

This works for `(blabla)` in the example title text  
`My text in a title (blabla)` and becomes `My text in a title`  
This works NOT for the example title text, where the closing bracket is not at the end of the title.  
`My Text in a title (blabla) or other text`
