Phase I collected data November 2011 to May 2013, with 21.6 kg·yr exposure, obtaining a 0vββ 90% CL half-life limit: T<sub>0vββ</sub> > 2.1×10^25 yr. This limit can be combined with previous results, disfavoring the Heidelberg-Moscow experiment claim. A double beta decay half-life was also measured: T = (1.84<sup>+0.14</sup><sub>−0.10</sub>)·10<sup>21</sup> yr.

This limit can be combined with previous results, disfavoring the Heidelberg-Moscow experiment claim. A double beta decay half-life was measured: T = (1.84<sup>+0.14</sup><sub>−0.10</sub>)·10<sup>21</sup> yr.
 
Phase II will have additional enriched Ge detectors and reduced background.
