The Trojan Horse method (THM) is a well-established experimental technique to measure nuclear reactions of astrophysical interest avoiding the suppression of the Coulomb barrier affecting experimental direct measurements. In this paper it will describe some of the THM studies involving few-body system of interest for both nuclear physics and nuclear astrophysics, such as the sub-Coulomb proton-proton elastic scattering and the deuteron-deuteron fusion at energies of interest for primordial nucleosynthesis. Moreover, the role of the intercluster motion in nuclei used for THM measurement will be highlight for the discussed physics cases.
