This requires both extravasation of cancer cells from the tumor and ... they are critical steps in the metastatic process that impose significant selective pressure on tumor cells.

Reduced mTOR and amino acid signaling triggers autophagy for cancer cell survival. Autophagic death is attenuated by chemokines in circulation, surviving signaling and possibly other mechanisms.
