Stuck with 2 simple regex for text editing

Hi there, I need to edit text with regex. It’s my first time working with expressions and I can’t seem to solve these two.

In my text there are a number of indications between square brackets as follows: [1], [2], [3], etc.
I want to remove them with one regex. My first thought was by using a character class, but after some trial and error I can’t seem to make it work.

I also want to remove all indications of type CHAPTER I. LOOMINGS , CHAPTER II. THE CARPET-BAG, … , CHAPTER CXXXV. THE CASE-THIRD DAY
I need to use an anchor to indicate that the pattern should be at the beginning of a line. This is what I had written so far: (?im)^CHAPTER
I’m able to remove the word CHAPTER, but I’m unable to find how to remove all the characters that come after.

Thanks in advance!
