Sort of the same. Once you suspect/declare runaway trim you hit the cutouts.
Until then you use the switches to correct trim.

After few cycles you realize something is trimming out of control/inappropriately that's the runaway and you hit the cutouts.
Or you first detect a trim change at the wrong/unexpected time and hit the switches. Whether MCAS or other cause.

Either way gets you to the same point. Cutouts used before you are severely out of trim and overspeed.
