Is there a built in way to pacman –ignore with a wildcard?

I’m currently manually parsing pacman’s packages listed in the -Syyu output, manually filtering them for a keyword, and then adding them to the ignore list manually. eg. I grep for cuda then extract listed packages manually to: --ignore=cuda,cuda-tools,magma-cuda,etc
I could make my own script to do this but it feels like something pacman or bash has.
