In the whole file?

This could work if they're not nested and not split across lines:

:%s/(.{-})//

I.e. change an opening parenthesis followed by as little as possible to
get to the next closing parenthisis, into nothing.

If that's not good enough, but the right kind of direction, I'm sure
some wizards here can extend it.
