problem with the previous data in matlab gui

I am working on matlab gui. how to delete previous data that is stored in the gui variable? like clear in command window, is there anything like that in gui

What is "the gui variable"? Do you mean the handles struct? Then:
handles.yourData = [];
guidata(hObject, handles);
Or
handles = rmfield(handles, 'yourData');
guidata(hObject, handles);
Or perhaps some persistent variables?
For a more precise answer, explain, how you store the variables.

hello @Jan
I have a little problem. I was able to code a "Next button" using app designer that have as aim to draw lines. I had the data coming from excel. I am able to draw each line by clicking on the next button. The only problem is that the previous data/line is not deleted. So instead of having one line, i will have 2 or more depending on how many times i click on the next button.
any function hat could be helpful?
